The Pioneers had the best weekend of basketball! On Friday the Pioneers defeated Lawrence for the fifth time in a row and on Saturday we (convincingly!) beat Carroll University for the first time since 2004! Carroll had been ranked 2nd in the league before yesterday's game!
Spectators of Saturday's game were certainly surprised by the outcome, but those within our team knew that it could be done based on how we played Carroll earlier in the season. The Pioneers executed the game plan to perfection and hit some big shots in critical moments of the game.
In January the team is 3-1 and continues to play great basketball. Check out the Grinnell athletics website for all the details! Next game: TOMORROW vs. MacMurray (non-conference)
The weekend was especially wonderful because we had so many parents visiting. Thanks to all the Pioneer families for the encouragement, support, and delicious after-game food!
The after game food must have tasted particularly good! CONGRATS!
