Freshmen struggle at the start

by Bryan Stanford
The freshmen Braves basketball team faced a tough Grinnell Tiger squad in their 47-31 loss on Saturday, Jan. 29.
 Post players Kane Barker and Logan Battreall combined for 19 points on the night, Barker with 10 and Battreall with 9 points. 
Coach Dale DeJong said, “We did a good job of getting into the paint and creating scoring opportunities.”
The Braves attacked the Tiger defense and reached the free throw line 11 times throughout the game.
Defensively, the Braves had a hard time defending the balanced attack of the Tigers. “We started a little slow defensively, but we were able to pick it up in the second half,” Coach DeJong said.
