DAKOTA SHOWCASE
POOL PLAY
PINNACLE BANK NEBRASKA 86, DAKOTA SCHOOLERS 39

Stop me if you heard this before. The older, deeper, stronger Pinnacle Bank Nebraska squad schooled the Dakota Schoolers 86-39. PBN had five players over 140 pp100 with major possessions, and 8 with 100 or better. PBN controlled the boards and controlled the free throw line. They made 20 free throws while DS only shot 10.

Once, just once, the Schoolers led 2-0. After that PBN went on a 14-0 run and never looked back. The Schoolers had droughts of 11, and 8 in the first half which didn’t help their cause. By half time PBN had enough points to win the game as they led 41-12.

DS struggled still with their offensive in the second half. They had one 1/10 sequence. PBN continued to draw interest on their offensive account. With 12 players they didn’t have any players that were winded. The free throw parade wasn’t as long in the second half.
