Pine City 78, Aitkin 42
The Gobblers are a team the Dragons know well, although they did leave the Great River Conference this season. As such, this will be the only meeting of the two teams. Although it was close at times, this game was never in doubt. Pine City looked sharp on both ends of the floor but has really turned into an underrated defensive team. They frustrated the Gobblers throughout, and the tandem of Jake Lunceford and Quentin Miklya did a nice job containing Gobblers top-threat Hunter Moe.
“This was a good example of who we are and what we are trying to do,” Allen said of the game. “It was a five point game at halftime, but our game plan began to take place into the second half. We want to run, and we want teams to have to run with us. We were able to wear them down and then continue to execute our game plan; 35 rebounds is close to our goal of 40, and Seth Logan lead us with nine. He did a nice job of continuing that upward trend on the boards. Jake Adams continues to get after it on the defensive end, he is fearless and tenacious. It is a lot of fun to coach a kid like that.”
Clay Logan led in scoring with 14 points while Seth Logan and Jake Rademacher each had 13.
