FIELD TWP – By halftime of the Grizzlies boys home basketball game against Bigfork on Friday, North Woods fans had just three questions deserving of serious consideration: when would the Grizzlies hit 100 points, who would score the century bucket, and what would the final scoring margin be?
Comfortably in control 58-32 at the break, the Grizzlies opened the second half with a devastating 26-2 haymaker, hit the century mark on a Sean Morrison basket with 4:13 left on a running clock, and closed out with a dominating 108-57 win.
Head Coach Will Kleppe was satisfied with the outcome, but he wasn’t happy at all when Bigfork’s Bradley Haley scored the Huskies’ first basket on a wide-open shot underneath the basket on a play the Grizzlies had practiced preventing. Kleppe immediately called time out.
