(December 6th, 2014) – ARCHBOLD: It’s one thing to earn a win against a hated rival. Yet victory tastes so much sweeter when victory is taken from the hands of one’s most disliked foe.
The Wauseon Junior Varsity boys experienced that very sensation when they took down their counterparts from Archbold 44-33 on December 6.
The Indians battled hard with the Blue Steaks early in the game, coming up just short in the first quarter 11-9. They saw their deficit expand in the second, going into halftime down 21-16. Wauseon would nearly double that score coming out of the locker room, however, putting up 15 points in the third period. That performance was followed up with a 13 point outing in the final stanza. During this scoring explosion for the boys from Wauseon, their defense held Archbold to just 6 points per quarter.
It was Austin Rotroff who led the charge for the Indians with a double-double, providing 14 points and 10 rebounds to the victory effort. Chase Brock added 9 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 steals for the boys of Wauseon. Another 7 points was offered up by Brendan Britsch.
