On Senior Night, the Macks (16-1, 7-1 Western Cloverbelt Conference) got off to a bit of a slow start against the Norse (10-4, 7-0 Dairyland - Large), who came out of the gate hot and scored the first 10 points of the contest.
From that point on, however, McDonell went on a run, running off the next 12 points and carrying a double-digit lead into the break, which they would later stretch to 20. A veteran Whitehall squad whittled the deficit down considerably, but timely shooting by the Macks carried them to a hard-fought non-conference victory.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior guard Eddie Mittermeyer was smoking from downtown, notching 7 threes and finishing with a game-high 33 points. Senior guard Aidan Misfeldt hit two big threes in the first half and tallied 14 for the game, while senior forward Keagan Galvez added 11 points, his third consecutive contest in double figures. Persevering through early foul trouble, senior Canan Huss contributed 10 points and strong rebounding throughout.
