The Teutopolis Wooden Shoes will take on the New Berlin Pretzels at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday. Both come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Wednesday, Teutopolis didn't have too much breathing room in their match against Monticello, but they still walked away with a 41-37 victory. Given the Wooden Shoes' advantage in MaxPreps' Illinois basketball rankings (they are ranked 124th, while the Sages are ranked 286th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask New Berlin). They were the clear victor by a 60-35 margin over Pawnee on Tuesday. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest win the Pretzels have posted since January 16, 2024.
New Berlin's victory bumped their record up to 7-4. As for Teutopolis, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a nice bump to their 10-4 record this season.
