Kewaunee High School

Slow start doesn't stop Kewaunee

Kewaunee trailed Sturgeon Bay midway through the first half — a position it isn’t used to at this point in the season — but closed strong and unleashed its offense in the second half for a 74-42 win.

The Clippers took a 14-13 lead nearly 10 minutes into the first half. Kewaunee answered with a 3-pointer to regain the advantage.

Despite some early offensive struggles, the Storm closed the half on a 4-0 run to take a 31-20 lead.

In the second half, Kewaunee looked like its usual self, blowing the game open and improving to 22-0.

Kewaunee has two games remaining — Algoma and Gibraltar next week — to close the regular season.

Sturgeon Bay also plays Tuesday and Thursday, facing N.E.W. Lutheran and Oconto.
