Knights Coach Kraig Hunter said, “Tonight we didn’t do all the things that have made us successful.  Defensively, we can’t give up 72 points. It was a combination of us being slow on rotations along with BOLD playing well. They shot the ball well and when they’re doing that, we can’t give them easy ones on top of that. Offensively, we didn’t play strong enough in the paint.  We had a chance to get a three-possession lead in the second half and didn’t finish allowing them to take the lead.”

Hunter concluded, “These are tough lessons, but important lessons to learn from going forward. It’s even more important now for us stay together and come back and be resilient next week.”

Scoring for the Knights were Cole Anderson 16, Bryce Kjesbo 16, Jacob Strunk 12, Nas Dotts 6, Mitch Dewey 3, Sam Hanson 3, and Ben Bye 2.  Hunter added, “I thought Nasir played his heart out tonight.” Dotts led the team in rebounds with 7, steals with 5 and assists with 4.  Kjesbo and Strunk joined Dotts with 7 rebounds each.  Kjesbo also had 4 assists and Anderson and Strunk each had 3 steals.

Andrew Meyer led the Warriors with 26 points, Jack Gross had 19, Owen King 13, Brayden Gross 5, William Penkert 4, Zane Boen 4, and Mathew Jacobs 1.

The Knights are now 10-3 and have home games with next week with Border West on Tuesday and Montevideo on Thursday.
