Hancock hasn't had much luck against Dollar Bay recently, but that could start to change on Thursday. The Bulldogs will be defending their home court for the first time this season when they go up against the Bays at 6:00 p.m.
Hancock is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They had to suffer through a 63-20 loss at the hands of Westwood.
Despite the loss, Hancock saw an underclassman step up: freshman Crew Caserio posted nine points.
Meanwhile, Dollar Bay didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Houghton on Monday, but they still walked away with a 74-70 victory.
Dollar Bay's win came from a few key players Hancock will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Baron Colbert, who went 6-for-8 from beyond the arc en route to 26 points and five boards. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in assists (four). Another player making a difference was Liam Tourtillott, who shot 54% from the field to rack up 18 points along with seven assists and three steals.
Hancock might still be hurting after the 54-33 defeat they got from Dollar Bay in their previous meeting back in February. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Tourtillott, who earned 26 points and seven rebounds. Now that the Bulldogs know the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? There's only one way to find out.
