The Horizon Hawks will look to take advantage of their home-court for the first time this season as they take on the St. Cloud Bulldogs at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Horizon, yet to win a game, are hoping to taste some of the success that has characterized St. Cloud's (thus far) undefeated season.
Horizon is headed into the matchup out to prove that what happened against Bishop Moore last Tuesday (when they were outscored in every quarter) was just a minor bump in the road. Horizon was outmatched by Bishop Moore on the road and fell 53-24.
Horizon's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Bradley Webb, who scored ten points in addition to five rebounds, and Aidan Stein, who earned four points.
Meanwhile, in a tight contest that could have gone either way, St. Cloud made off with a 59-58 win over Lake Highland Prep. The 59-point effort marked the Bulldogs' lowest-scoring match of the season, but in the end it didn't matter.
St. Cloud pushed their record up to 5-0 with the victory, which was their 12th straight at home dating back to last season.
