Underwood had to start their season on the road on Thursday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They received a blow as they fell 69-53 to the Hillcrest Lutheran Academy Comets. If the Rockets were looking for revenge after losing 63-57 to the Comets when the teams met back in February, then they'll just have to keep looking.
Several Rockets players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Daxton Risbrudt, who posted 13 points. Grady Shebeck was another key player, putting up 12 points.
We've got plenty of inter-conference action coming up soon. Underwood will challenge rival Hancock at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Hillcrest Lutheran Academy is set to face off against their familiar foe Ada-Borup/Norman County West at 7:15 p.m. on the 12th.
