Wolverines roar past Lions for seventh win in district play

Your Wakeland Wolverines roared past the Turner Lions this past Tuesday night by a score of 75-33 in front of a record crowd for Middle School Night. The Wolverines pummeled the Lions right off the tip by outscoring the Lions by 23 points in the first half. The second half wasn't much different as the Wolverines extended their lead to 40 points by the final buzzer. Freshmen Head Coach Joe Lewis stated to InTouch, "I haven't seen a Lion tamed like that since the last Siegfried and Roy show I saw in Vegas!" Blake Adams hit "4" three's, which helped him to an 18 point night. Sean Watkins dished out 7 assists, which tied his own record he set just a few weeks ago. Daniel Rentie was active on defense with 4 steals, and Cameron Walker windexed the boards with 5 rebounds. The win brings Wakeland's overall record to 15-14, with a 7-5 in District 9-4A. The Wolverines will face their tollway rivals this Friday night as they will try to spoil the Raccoons chance for a piece of the District title, so come out and support your orange and blue!
