“Tonight we came out and played hard but the last 8-9 minutes of the first half we really struggled and Hancock built too big of a lead for us to overcome," stated Rothsay Head Coach Taylor Fuhs.  "The second half of the game might have been the best half of basketball we have played to date. Hoping we can build off that going in to tomorrow night”

Hancock (4-3) will host Underwood on Friday night, while Rothsay (0-6) will entertain Ortonville on Tuesday and will travel to Fergus Falls to play Hillcrest on Thursday.
