Luxemburg Casco ended 2025 with a big win at the Kress Center, taking down Green Bay Southwest by a score of 68-50 in the Shawano Hoops Holiday Classic, as heard on 104.1 WRLU. 

The Spartans got out to an early lead courtesy of four points from Mason Burmeister.  Brayden Duescher also made the most out of a starting opportunity, scoring six first half points, including a thunderous dunk in transition to help build the LC lead.  As the half went on, the Spartans would build a lead by using their size and quickness to get in the paint, only for Green Bay Southwest to hit a long range shot to keep the score close.  The Spartans built their lead as high as 10 points late in the opening period, until Debron Danforth hit a 3 at the halftime buzzer to close the score to 31-24 at the break.  

Luxemburg Casco opened the second half on a 9-2, prompting a Trojans timeout.   Green Bay Southwest used the timeout to put on a press, and stormed back on an 8-0 run to close the gap to 40-34 near the midway point of the half.  From there though, it was all Spartans.  Mason Trimberger built on a big first half to help lead LC to victory, scoring a game high 22 points en route to the win.  Ethan Ropson, coming off a career high 16 point game against Algoma, added 13 points, with Burneister totaling 12 points.  Danforth led the Trojans with 14 points, most of which came from behind the arc, with Noah Schroeder adding 13, and John Paul Guinter scoring 11 points to round out Green Bay Southwest’s double digit scorers.  

Luxemburg Casco will start the new calendar year with a matchup against Southern Door on Friday, January 2nd that will be broadcasted on U102.1.
