The Underwood Rockets held a 33-25 halftime lead over Frazee on Saturday at the Fargo Civic Center, however, the Hornets poured in 52 second half points on the way to a 77-61 victory.

 

Frazee had five players score in double figures, led by 18 from Brandon Carpentier and 15 from Jack Courneya.  Cole Fleisher and Braden Fleisheradded 14 and 12 points, respectively, and Reid Ecker contributed 11.

Canann Kugler led the Rockets with 19 and two players, Daxton Olson and Krosby Aasness scored 11 each. Braden Thorson finished with 9 points.

"We played a solid first half on both ends of the court," said Underwood Head Coach Evan Meece.  "However, Frazee picked up the pressure and we were unable to respond in the second half.  Offensively, we made too many turnovers and didn't take care of the ball.  Defensively, we gave up too many fastbreak points and were flat in the second half.  We need to take care of the ball better moving forward."

Underwood will host Brandon-Evansville on Tuesday, will travel to Battle Lake on Thursday and to Parkers Prairie on Friday.
