The Sevastopol Pioneers sailed into Sturgeon Bay on Thursday and toppled the Clippers 59-42.

The final margin was earned in the opening minutes of the game as the Pioneers jumped out to a 19-2 advantage in the first nine minutes. The Pioneers would slip from their high watermark in the first half, but still entered the break with a 30-17 lead. The Clippers were better offensively in the second half, but the Pioneers were still able to hold the upper hand after the break by a 29-25 margin.

The Pioneers stay at home Friday night as they look to keep climbing up the Packerland Conference standings with a game against Gibraltar. Tip is set for 7:30 p.m.
