The Perry varsity basketball teams will be at home tonight when they take on South Hamilton in the conference opener. Tonight’s games will be the first of the week for Perry after Tuesday’s game against Boone was cancelled due to weather. No make up date has been set.
The South Hamilton boy’s squad enters tonight with a 1-0 record after last night’s 69-60 victory over Iowa Falls. The Hawks used a big fourth quarter to rally past the Cadets, outscoring Iowa Falls 28-16 in the final stanza. Reese Ricke led all scorers with 22 points. Tonight will be the season debut for the Perry boys.
In the girl’s matchup, the Jayettes will look to keep the momentum rolling following a strong opening week. Lydia Olejniczak and Reagan Baldwin have provided the offensive firepower through the first two games, both lopsided wins over Ft Dodge St Edmond and Des Moines Hoover. South Hamilton is also 2-0 after a 64-50 season opening win against Collins Maxwell and last night’s 57-36 win over Iowa Falls. All conference player Hallee Feaker will lead the Hawks into the Sports Pavilion tonight.
