Hawkeyes improve to 2-2, 1-0 Irondale division, with 25-9 rout of Gophers
What a great effort by the boys and they now look to move their Irondale division record to 2-0 next Saturday against another foe from Irondale.
Rough game for the Hawkeyes today. We faced a very good shooting Mounds View team and went down to defeat 38-18. Once again very proud of the boys as they met our halftime challenge and won the second half as was asked of them. Jayden Klinke once again led the Hawkeyes in scoring as he pumped in 8 points. Jaxson Behr and Carlos Momsen each added 4 and Jonavan Okora scored his first youth point ever as he added 2. The rebounding numbers were very impressive for the Hawkeyes as 8 of the 10 boys pulled down a carom. They continue to treat each rebound as if it is their's and only their's. With the loss the Hawkeyes fall to 1-2.
The Hawkeye boys tried valiantly to overcome a poor coaching performance in the first half that saw them behind 17-0 after the first 4 periods were over. And boy did they make it close. It started with a VERY dramatic come from behind, win by a nose win in the relay race that finally enabled them to erase the zero off the board. They were asked at halftime to forget what the scoreboard said and go out and try to win the second half. And win it they did. With each of them playing defense as if the Mounds View boys had each kicked our dogs, they started slowly and methodically decreasing the deficit. They cut the lead to 5, 21-16 at approximately the 2 minute mark but a final basket by the Mounds View team gave us our final score of 23-16. It was an awesome comeback and each boy deserves creit for that.
Jayden Klinke led us in scoring with 6 points, Jaxon Behr scored 3, Charlie Schumer, and Ben Zastrow each scored 2 points, and Jonavan Okora chipped in with 1. For all except Jayden, it was the first points they scored as an Irondale basketball player. Hopefully there are many, many more for all of them. Charlie Schumer got the Windex award for sweping the glass clean with 8 rebounds, followed closely by Jaxon Behr with 7 and Jayden Klinke with 6. Ben Zastrow added 2 rebounds and Wyatt Braman and Isaac Landin each added a board apiece.
Coach Pat is still waiting for an explanation from the league offices as to why there was a cover on the east end basket in the first half. The boys put up a lot of very good shots that would not find their way into the basket.
Hawkeyes start 1-0
