The BRLD Boys Basketball Team is 3-0 so far this season, defeating Omaha Nation 57-53 at home last Thursday night, Homer 86-41 on the road Saturday, and Emerson-Hubbard 65-25 on the road Tuesday night.
The Wolverines led the Knights 12-8 after one. BRLD won the 2nd quarter 23-16 to take a 35-24 lead into the locker room.
The Wolverines outscored Homer 35-15 in the 3rd quarter to go up 70-39 at the end of three.
BRLD put up 16 points in the 4th quarter, and held the Knights to just 2.
Great start to the season for the Wolverines. BRLD had a close first game, but has been magnificent in their last two contests.
The Wolverines (3-0) host Clarkson/Leigh (0-3) Friday night in action that can be heard on 107.9 the Bull.
The Patriots lost 73-35 at home to Oakland-Craig Tuesday night.
I look for this game to be similar to the way the Homer and Emerson-Hubbard games went for BRLD.
It's important for the Wolverines to be sharp Friday night with Howells-Dodge and Ponca coming up before the Holiday Break.
BRLD has to flex their muscles and be as impressive as possible prior to those two contests.
The Wolverines are off to an excellent start, but there's a lot of work to be done.
This game with Clarkson/Leigh is one BRLD has to not only win, but win big.
The Wolverines have to be driven, motivated, animated, vocal, and energized.
BRLD has to light a fire under themselves, and go out there and perform at an extremely high level.
The Wolverines have to find some motivation from within to go out there and play well.
It might be easy to be unmotivated or complacent given the Patriots' record so far, but every opponent deserves respect.
BRLD has to treat this game like they're playing Winnebago or something like that.
The Wolverines have to come out pumped and flat out angry and fired up.
BRLD has to go full throttle, and take it to Clarkson/Leigh for 4 quarters.
The Wolverines have to be relentless with their attack, and must give the Patriots everything they've got and then some.
BRLD simply has to go out there and take care of business and leave no doubt.
The game will be heard on 107.9 the Bull at 6:00 p.m.
The BRLD Girls Basketball Team lost 66-57 at home to Omaha Nation last Thursday night to open the season before winning 58-46 at Homer on Saturday, and 50-36 at Emerson-Hubbard Tuesday night.

I thought the Wolverines did a nice job bouncing back following the loss to Omaha Nation.
BRLD (2-1) hosts Clarkson/Leigh (2-1) Friday night in a game that can be heard on 107.9 the Bull.
The Patriots knocked off Oakland-Craig 36-30 at home Tuesday night.
Clarkson/Leigh is a great team, especially defensively, and it doesn't figure to be easy for the Wolverines to score.
Peters, Garzemeyer, and others have to step up and have big games for the Wolverines.
BRLD has to work the ball around the court for good shots, and work the ball inside as well as look to get out and run.
I'm not sure if the Patriots want to play fast so the Wolverines have to look to get out and run and push tempo as much as possible.
I think if BRLD can score in the 50's again they should have a good chance to win.
The Wolverines have been solid offensively this season, but not great.
The defense has also been solid, in my opinion.
BRLD has to step up their game if they want to win Friday night though.
The Wolverines have to play at a higher level than they have been, and score more and give up less than they have so far this season.
I look for this game to be a low scoring affair that comes down to the final minutes or seconds.
BRLD has to come out fired up and ready to fight and get physical with Clarkson/Leigh.
The Wolverines have to play inspired, and have to want to raise their level of play and play better than they have so far this season.
I think from a scoring margin standpoint BRLD has improved in each and every game so far this season so we'll see what happens Friday night.
The game will be aired on 107.9 the Bull after the boys game.
