We got good spacing and nice easy looks at the rim. We did a much better job the second half of boxing out and getting people out of the lane. We also got all of our kids rotated in and get some game time experience.“

Wagner would cut it back down to 10 early in the 4th but wouldn’t be able to overcome the deficit and fall 45-59. The Titans would shoot nearly 65% from the field the first half but the Raiders would play much better defense the second half to allow the Titans to shoot only 45% for the game.

Macy Koupal would lead Wagner 22 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. Ashlyn Koupal would net 12 points, grab 6 boards, block 5 shots and dish out 2 assists. Braxton Nedved would finish with 5 points and 3 assists. Hayden Knudsen and Lydia Yost would both round out the scoring with 3 points. Hayden would grab 4 boards and dish out 2 assists. Lydia would have a team high 3 steals. “Offensively we never got in a rhythm. Early in the game we took a lot of open looks early in the shot clock but didn’t convert where they did on the other end. Once we started to attack the basket and force them to play defense we started to get things clicking offensively. We can’t allow 38 points to open up a half. They hit some tough shots but we didn’t have any help on drives where we should have. The second half we did a much better job containing their scorers. We also can’t get out rebounded like we did. We gave them a lot of second chance points the first half. We have to do a better job of boxing out.”

Wagner Bon Homme gymnasts competed in one of their final regular season meets Thursday in Vermillion. The girls are always fun to watch. This fun bunch of girls always finds a way to take less than ideal situations and shine. They have found ways to shine for each other, or shine simply for oneself when needed. Although they may not have stuck the routines, as we had all hoped, and some scores were not where we had wanted, stuck together, remembered these less than fortunate moments do not define them as a person or a gymnast. However, the way they respond and can bounce back to learn from them are very character building and defining moments. Go out and truly believe in yourselves and teammates this final home meet. Give it your all in Hot Springs at the Region meet. Coach Schroeder and I believe in you!
