The Weeping Water boys had a better outcome in their game against Yutan than the girls.  Our boys led the Yutan Chieftains the entire game and came away with a 71-28 victory.  With such a large lead, coach Blase was able to do more substituting than usual, giving the younger players more court time.  Congratulations Indians!
