Whippet Boys’ Basketball wins season opener vs Bigfoot

The Whippet Varsity boys opened the season with a 71-64 win versus Bigfoot on Tuesday evening, December 3rd. The Whippets played gritty, hard-nosed defense to force the Chiefs into bad shots and stray passes. On offense they controlled the tempo of the game with patience and working to get good shots. Jake Martin was the leading scorer with 28 followed by Brock Grosinske with 15 and Carter Brown with eight points.

The Whippet JV1 team won their game versus the Chiefs 87-29 and the JV2 team dropped their first game of the season by a single point.

The community is invited to the game on December 6th when the Whippet Boys host Evansville. The Varsity and JV1 teams will play at the Middle School as part of the Ken Nehring re-dedication ceremony.
