The Gibraltar Vikings boys basketball team hopes to shed a five game losing streak to advance in the WIAA Tournament when they play in Suring on Tuesday to face the Eagles.

 

The Vikings last won on February 12th in a nailbiter against Southern Door. In their last game, the Vikings trailed by just four points early in the second half before being outscored by 20 points the rest of the way in a 58-34 loss to Wabeno-Laona in Fish Creek on Saturday. Marco Jauregui paved the way for the Vikings with 20 points while Kayin Jackson added six points and Aaron Brey chipped in four points. The Vikings hope to have an injured Wyatt Bultman back for the tournament, who is third on the team in scoring (9.4 ppg) and leads the team in rebounding (3.9 rpg).
