Drew Evavold (19 points, 7-10FG, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks) and Gavin Pausch (10 points, 4-5FG, 4 assists) were both in double digits for the Rockets.  Hudson Risbrudt added 7 points and 4 rebounds, Kaleb Hammes had 7 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, Cole Peterson finished with 6 points on 3-for-3 shooting and Owen Harig contributed 6 points and 3 assists.

“We had a much better defensive effort tonight, and finished with a rebound, limiting their second chance points,” reported Underwood Head Coach Kellen Shebeck. “We struggled to knock down some shots early, which led to a 10-2 deficit, but Hudson Risbrudt hit 2 threes at a crucial point in that game to get us rolling and bring it to 10-8. Drew Evavold, Gavin Pausch and Kaleb Hammes were very efficient on offense, and really stepped up and set a good tone for us tonight. Jack Parker and Collin Lukken were excellent off the bench for us, giving us great minutes in the first half with Cole Peterson getting two early fouls. This was a big bounce back game for us, and I’m proud of their effort!”
