Drew Daoust stands just 23 points away from 3,000 points in his career after leading Southern Door past NEW Lutheran 83-37.

Daoust paced the Eagles with 23 first-half points as they raced out to a 54-18 lead. He was not the only one who put the pressure on the Blazers offensively with Caden Pierre and Lauden Berg also reaching double figures in the opening frame. Daoust ended up leading all scorers with 35 points, while Pierre poured in 17 points, and Berg added 12 points. The Eagles' defense made it difficult to get into an offensive groove, as they made only seven shots from the field in either half. Reid Nelson did the bulk of his work in the first half as he ended the night with 12 points, while two others chipped in eight points.

Daoust could reach 3,000 points on Thursday when the Eagles play Oconto in Brussels. Jacob Nate will have the call on U-102.1 beginning at 6:45 p.m., followed by the tip-off at 7 p.m.
