(WCC Tournament Semi-Final)
Saturday’s game was the third match-up of the season between the Cyclones and Chargers. The Cyclones had won the previous two contests by 9 and 17. Beating a good team 3 times in one season is hard to do, but the Cyclones were up to the task on Saturday at JustAGame Fieldhouse in Wisconsin Dells.
The Cyclones got contributions from 7 players in the opening half, and headed to the lockerroom with a 34-29 lead. UW-Fox struggled on offense in the opening half, but held the Chargers to 1/13 shooting from three-point range.
In the second half UW-Fox got key contributions from two of their first year players in earning the victory. Guard Chase Hawley knocked down 2 three-point field goal attempts, and post player Nick Mohl scored 8 points. Hawley’s last 3 with just under 6 minutes remaining put momentum back in the hands of the Cyclones.
Trevor Krizenesky led the Cyclones with 17 points and 5 assists, while Mohl added 10 rebounds to go with his 8 points. Marcus Jensen also contributed 7 rebounds and 7 points for UW-Fox, which got 5 or more points from nine different players.
With the win UW-Fox moves to 23-4 overall on the season, and they earn a spot in the WCC Tournament Championship game for the 4th time in 5 seasons under head coach Lee Rabas. They will play UW-Richland, 98-93 winners over UW-Manitowoc in the other semi-final on Saturday, at 2pm on Sunday at JustAGame Fieldhouse in Wisconsin Dells.
