A sluggish defensive start plagued The Dragons to start the game, but were able to pick up the defensive intensity going into halftime; it would stay with them for most of the rest of the game.
In the contest, Pine City broke the school record for most 3's made in a game with 15. Mitchell Hansmann (20 points, 5 assists) lead the 3 point shooting with 6 made 3's followed by Noah Adams (27 points, 4 assists) with 4 and Kole Jusczak (15 points, 4 rebounds) with 3. Clay Logan (5 points, 4 assists) and Easton Foss (9 points) both chipped in with 1.
The hot shooting helped the team keep the attack on as they shot 61% in the game.
Connor Clark (3 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 points) and James Pixley (4 steals, 4 points, 1 dunk) worked on the back side and controlled the paint.
This was the first playoff win for the program since the 2007-08 season.
Next up, Pine City will be traveling to Duluth (Denfeld High School) for a match up against the winner of #1 Barnum and #8 Aitkin. The game will be at 730pm this Saturday.
