Parkers Prairie held Underwood to 7 first half points as they led 41-7 at the intermission on the way to a 65-24 Little Eight Conference boys’ basketball win on the Rockets home floor.

Florian Koep led the Panthers with 18 points.  He was joined in double digits by Riley Thoennes and Micah Arens with 12 and 11 points, respectively.  Mason Arens contributed 9 and Brendon Johnson added 7 points.

“We had far too many unforced errors tonight,” said Underwood Head Coach Evan Meece.  “Once we broke the press, we made careless mistakes in the half court and couldn’t get anything going offensively.  We did not adjust on the court as well as we needed to.”

Krosby Aasness led Underwood with 10 points and Evan Lundgren had 5.

Parkers Prairie (9-2) will host Swanville on Monday.

Brandon-Evansville will visit Underwood for a Little Eight Conference contest on Tuesday night.
