"We simply could not get the ball to go in the hoop today,” commented Underwood Head Coach Evan Meece. “Our outside game wasn't there and we did not make the necessary adjustments to work the ball into the paint when our shots weren't falling. We pressed too much and kept shooting too many outside shots."
CGB (2-12) will play at West Central Area on Friday and will host Renville County West in their regular season finale on Saturday at 2:30pm.
Underwood (0-16) is at Battle Lake on Thursday and will host Henning on Saturday.
