The Munising Baptist boys basketball team found themselves up against a bit of a buzzsaw on Friday. The Bobcats were playing a Northern Lights League game over at Kinross Maplewood Baptist Academy, and came up short, 65-28.

Even though they might have been tired from a long evening the night before, there really was no stopping the Munising girls basketball team in their home game with Felch North Dickinson last week. The Lady Mustangs were taking on the Lady Nordics on Wednesday, Feb. 7, and controlled things from the start, to the tune of a 52-12 victory.

With injuries mounting, wins have been hard to come by for the Superior Central girls basketball team recently. They found a much-needed victory on Monday though, when they took down visiting Hannahville Nah Tah Wahsh, 46-28, and snapping their unwanted five game losing skid in the process.

Friday’s home Northern Lights League boys basketball game turned out to be a good one for Grand Marais. The Polar Bears were hosting Beaver Island, and were able to claim a well-played win, 63-38.

After dropping three straight games entering Monday’s home game with Hannahville Nah Tah Wahsh, Superior Central head coach Adam Ely just wanted a win. The Cougars delivered that, as they used a strong fourth quarter to turn what had been a close game into a 44-35 victory.
