Gibraltar boys' basketball patiently awaits first game

The Gibraltar Vikings boys’ basketball team have yet to play a game this season due to COVID-19 concerns but remain excited for the opportunity. Head coach Justin Burress has prepared his team for any and everything this season. 

 

 

The Vikings have been producing quality workouts individually and collectively.

Krause's three clinches Vikings win over Algoma

Gibraltar's Sage Krause hit a three-pointer with just seconds remaining in the game to give the Vikings the 44-43 win over the visiting Algoma Wolves Tuesday night in Packerland girls' basketball action.

 

The see-saw affair saw the Vikings take a 25-21 lead into break, only to see the Wolves take a slim lead heading into the final moments of the game. After a Wolves' free throw miss, good ball movement led to finding Krause at the top of the key to hit the game-winner. The Wolves turned the ball over deep Gibraltar territory and had to foul them with just a few seconds on the clock to give them hope. Gibraltar missed the free throw but collected the rebound to secure the victory.

 

Krause led all scorers with 17 points while Sophia Alexander chipped in 12 in the winner. Hannah Wiese scored 16 in the loss.

 

The Vikings will play next on the road at Peshtigo on December 7th for a 7:30 p.m. tip. 

Gibraltar opens season at home against Algoma

Gibraltar will host its first indoor events since February when its girls' team hosts Algoma on Tuesday night.

 

The Vikings lost two big pieces of their offense due to graduation in Nina and Abbi Sitte. They also lost Karlee Kita for the entire season as she continued to rehab her leg injury. Head coach Devin Thomas says having Kita back in the line-up is big for his team. 

 

 

The Vikings do return their two other top scorers in Sage Krause and Maggie Moroney, both of which did a lot of their work from behind for last year's regional final qualifier. They face an Algoma team that will lean on Hannah Wiese for its leadership as its top scorer, rebounder, and assist maker.

 

Tuesday's game begins at 7:30 p.m.
