Wolverines last minute stampede not enough against Mustangs

Your Wakeland Wolverines dropped yet another hard fought battle to the Mustangs of J.J. Pearce Tuesday night by a score of 62-52. The fourth quarter offensive explosion for the Wolverines just wasn't enough to overcome the previous miscues during the first three quarters of play. Turnovers proved costly again, as the Wolverines commited 28 to Pearce's 18. In addition, the Wolverines continued to struggle from beyond the arc, as they went 2-18 on the night. Cameron Walker led Wakeland with 11 points, and 9 boards while Josh Harris had 9 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 steals. Noah Westerfield added 8 points along with 7 rebounds. Head Coach, Brent Benningfield stated, "we're just very young and learning how to play together right now through a very difficult schedule, and we will continue to work out the kinks as District approaches." This brings Wakeland's overall record to 1-4, as they head into the Grapevine Tournament this weekend. Wakeland will begin by facing off against two of the best teams 4A has to offer, Everman, and Waxahachie. So stay tuned for results from this weekend. Go Wolverines!
