DES MOINES, Iowa – The Lake Mills Bulldogs entered Wells Fargo Arena for the Class 1A state tournament with a perfect 25-0 record as the No. 2 seed. Their quarterfinal opponent would be No. 7 Montezuma.
After trailing by six at the end of the first quarter, the Bulldogs outscored the Braves 21-15 in the second quarter to tie the game 40-40 at the halftime break. The game would go into overtime where Montezuma prevailed handing the Bulldogs their only loss of the season, 64-61.
Lake Mills faced little challenge throughout the season, steamrolling their way to an undefeated regular season, though, the postseason has been a different story. They trailed Bishop Garrigan – the 2020 Class 1A runners-up – heading to the fourth quarter in the district final but won by outscoring the Golden Bears 17-10 in the final frame. The substate final against West Fork – who finished fourth at state last year – was also a challenge through the first eight minutes and again in the second half, but the Bulldogs pulled away for the 54-40 victory.
Lake Mills has three seniors in the starting lineup, two of which – Linnen and Caleb Bacon – were key components to their success last year. The other, Ryan Huston, has stepped up in a big way. The senior played in only 17 of Lake Mills’ 26 games a year ago. This season, Huston has played in all 25 and started 24 of them. Huston is careful with the basketball, with only 18 turnovers all season and a key to the Lake Mill

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is getting widely criticized after announcing this week that live performances are coming back to the Big Apple.
In a video featuring interpretive dancers on an empty street in the freezing cold, the mayor says, “We need a recovery that brings back the life and the heart and the energy of this city and that everyone gets to be part of.”
“And if we’re going to do that, if we’re going to really bring back the heart and soul of New York City, we need our arts and culture back, he continued. And we need people to see it and feel it, to participate in it to know that the essence of New York City has not been defeated by the coronavirus but will come back strong in 2021.”

The Lake Mills Bulldogs boys basketball team is just two wins away from a perfect season. One win away from joining the 2016-2017 Garner-Hayfield-Ventura Cardinals as the only teams to win the Top of Iowa Conference with an undefeated record.
With so much success, career and season records are bound to fall. Last night, Caleb Bacon passed Andy Stensrud for career rebounds while wearing the purple and gold. Stensrud – a 1997 graduate -grabbed 699 rebounds for Lake Mills throughout his career. Bacon grabbed his 700th last night in a win over North Union.
