The UW-Fox Men’s Basketball team avenged an earlier season loss with a 72-63 road win over UW-Manitowoc. The Blue Devils (17-4, 11-1) had wrapped up the WCC-East title on Monday night, which ended the Cyclones 3 year hold on the regular season conference crown. However, with the win the Cyclones secure second place and move to 18-4 overall, 8-2 in the WCC-East.
Trevor Krizenesky scored 29 points to lead the Cyclones, while Cameron Schaefer chipped in with 12 points. The two combined to shoot 15/26 for the game. Marcus Jensen also scored 8 points and Nick Mohl grabbed 8 rebounds for UW-Fox.
Krizenesky scored 5 straight points to close out the first half and help the Cyclones to a 32-26 halftime lead. UW-Manitowoc has been a big second half team this season, but the Cyclones picked up where they left off and pushed the lead to 45-30 on a Krizenesky drive with 13:41 remaining.
The Blue Devils cut the lead to single digits on several different occasions, but each time UW-Fox was up to the challenge. The Cyclones hit 10 of their 14 free-throws in the second half to seal the victory.
UW-Fox wraps up their home schedule this Friday February 7th when they host UW-Marinette at 7:30pm. The Cyclone men’s basketball program will say good-bye to 10 fabulous second year players. UW-Fox closes out the regular season with a WCC-East road game at UW-Washington on Monday February 10th.
