Bennett Nienhaus led four Hancock boys basketball players in double figures on Tuesday night, scoring 27 points in the Owls 70-42 victory over Underwood on the Rockets home floor.  Payton Rohloff scored 11 points and two players, Connor Reese and Cole Reese added ten points each.

 

Underwood was led by Krosby Aasness and Winston Heifort with 12 and 10 points, respectively.  Braden Thorson added 7 points, Canaan Kugler had 6 and Nick Seiple scored five.

"We couldn't keep up with the intensity that Hancock brought at us tonight," said Underwood Head Coach Evan Meece.  "They put some pressure on us and forced us into some mistakes that we don't usually make.  It was also difficult to be able to stop them with all their scoring threats.  They have a lot of shooters, which makes it difficult to contain everyone.  We had a lot of things go well tonight, but it wasn't enough against really tough competition."
