Almond-Bancroft
Boys basketball: A slow start and a bad finish contributed to A-B's first Central Wisconsin Conference
small division loss of the season, a 54-36 decision last Tuesday at Iola-Scandinavia. The Eagles (4-2 overall,
4-1 in CWC small division) fell behind 19-8 after one quarter and trailed 33-27 entering the fourth quarter. The
Thunderbirds pulled way in the fourth, outscoring A-B 21-9.
Kent Dernbach led the Eagles with 16 points. A-B shot just 11-of-40 from the field (28 percent).
Girls basketball: A-B fell behind early and Iola-Scandinavia ran away with a 64-40 win over the host
Eagles last Tuesday. The first-place Thunderbirds jumped to a 20-3 lead after the first quarter and never looked
back.
The Eagles fell to 5-4 overall and 4-2 in the CWC small division. Darlene Turzinski had 13 points for A-B.
Amherst
Boys basketball: A strong fourth quarter propelled the Falcons to a 60-44 win over Bonduel last Tuesday.
Amherst (6-0 overall, 3-0 in CWC large division) held a 42-36 lead after three quarters and then outscored the
Bears 18-8 in the final eight minutes.
"This was a good battle. Bonduel has a nice team," Amherst coach Gregg Jensen said. "We had to
play well and we did. We got good play out of our starters and got good spot time out of our subs coming off the
bench."
Dylan Page paced Amherst with 23 points, nine rebounds and six blocks. Paul Konkol added 10 points and Jeremy
Sherf had four steals.
Girls basketball: Amherst wasted a 14-point halftime lead and fell flat in the second half as Bonduel
handed the Falcons their first loss of the season, 39-36, last Tuesday. Amherst (7-1 overall, 3-1 CWC in large
division) scored only eight points in the second half and turned the ball over numerous times.
Meghan Simkins led the Falcons with 18 points and 11 rebounds.

Girls basketball: A strong defensive effort helped the Hornets handle host Gresham, 40-26, last Tuesday.
