The BRLD Boys won 77-30 at home over Pender in Friday night's regular season finale before winning 68-40 at home over Tri County Northeast in the C2-4 Sub-District Semifinals Tuesday night.
The Wolverines led the Pendragons 24-10 after one. BRLD outscored Pender 21-11 in the 2nd quarter to take a 45-21 lead into the locker room.
The Wolverines tripled up the Pendragons 18-6 in the 3rd quarter to go up 61-27 at the end of three.
BRLD outscored Pender 16-3 in the 4th quarter.

BRLD won the 3rd quarter 19-16 to go up 58-35 at the end of three.

Great games and performances by BRLD.
The Wolverines (16-4) take on Wakefield (20-4) in the C2-4 Sub-District Final from Lyons Thursday night.
The Trojans won 64-43 over Ponca in Tuesday night's other Semifinal.
Wakefield beat BRLD 59-55 at home on January 19th.
However, the Wolverines were without the services of Vogt, who was out with an ankle injury.
This time BRLD is at full strength.
That and the Wolverines are at home.
Those two things along with the fact that BRLD guarantees themselves a trip to Sub-State with a win is why I look for the Wolverines to win come Thursday night.
Both of these teams could potentially make Sub-State, but it's more iffy for Wakefield than it is BRLD.
Either way it should be a great atmosphere for some championship level and type basketball come Thursday night.
Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. in Lyons.
The BRLD Girls won 47-39 at home over Pender in the C2-4 Sub-District Final Thursday night.
The Pendragons led 10-8 after one before the Wolverines won the 2nd quarter 12-7 to take a 20-17 lead into the locker room.
BRLD won the 3rd quarter 12-8 to go up 32-25 at the end of three.
The Wolverines won the 4th quarter 15-14.
Jordan Snyder led the way with 19 points and 9 rebounds while Cargan Tietz added 8 points. Isabel Freemont chipped in 7 points while Alyssa Buchholz notched 8 rebounds.
Really good win for BRLD.
The Wolverines (19-4) battle North Central (20-4) in the C2-7 Sub-State Final from Battle Creek Friday night.
The Knights fell 56-24 to Crofton in the C2-5 Sub-District Final at Crofton Thursday night.
North Central beat Ponca 40-35 in last Tuesday's Semifinals.
BRLD beat the Indians 63-53 at home on January 16th.
I look for the Wolverines to win a super close, tight game come Friday night.
BRLD is battle tested and made state last year, and has played great basketball down the stretch.
The Wolverines have to go out there and play their game and play loose and execute.
Things could be decided by a possession or two so BRLD has to value and maximize each possession.
The Wolverines simply have to want it more than the Knights.
Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. at Battle Creek.
