Dragon boys basketball earn two nice wins on the road
The Dragon boys basketball team had a busy week with three games, all on the road. They faced neighboring team Braham Bombers on Jan. 24.
Pine City 84, Braham 58
Braham hit a 3-pointer to start off the game. It took a few minutes, but the Dragons were able to get a rebound and put-back by Senior Riley Cummings. Senior Luke Wilson then followed with a deep 3-pointer to put the Dragons in the lead 5-3. Ten minutes into the first half the Dragons had a 10-point lead.
Braham would gain a little momentum and bring the score to within 8 points at the half. But the Dragons came out strong the second half, found their groove and finished the game with a solid finish. The score was 84-58.
“History comes at ya in this gym, years of great basketball were played here for a long time,” said coach Kyle Allen. Braham has a record for the most consecutive conference wins and most consecutive home wins in state history, he added. “We ended that streak and so we have some proud moments going over there. The first half was really a grind, both teams coming out ready to play. We got into foul trouble in the first half, so we ended up changing the rotation and the guys responded well. The second half we were able to pull away and wore them down.”
Senior Riley Cummings pulled down 11 rebounds, and senior Luke Wilson had 8 big assists.
