Glenwood At Kuemper
Glenwood 66
Kuemper 59
Kuemper battled hard and played well on defense initially but gave up too many offensive rebounds and Glenwood was able to take advantage building a 10 point lead midway through the 2nd quarter. The Knights rallied with a 16-7 run to end the 1st half and took a brief lead before halftime but trailed 35-34 at the break. The game remained tight most of the rest of the way with Noah Bauer tying the game at 37 and Kuemper twice leading in the 3rd quarter but the Rams got the lead back, went up by 4 and spread the floor for the final 4:00 minutes, using their athletes and the spacing to dribble drive and get Ryan Blum the freedom to create. It was a 5 point game late but Glenwood pulled away down the stretch and went up by as many as 10.
