The Dux came out strong in the first game of the year on Tuesday night.  Tanner Thompson opened up the scoring with a three off of the assist from Carson Gulker. (11 points)  West never looked back and jumped out to a 17-4 lead with solid defense which led to fast break layups.  The Dux continued to share the ball with crisp passing and great ball movement which led to open shots and helped stretch the lead to 37-15 at the half.  Coach Klyn said after the game, "I was really impressed with how well we shared the ball.  Our guys did a great job making the extra pass and passing up good shots for great shots."  The second half the Dux continued their aggressive defense and pushed the lead to almost 30 points.  10 of 13 players scored in a 65-42 win.  The two returning seniors got off to a good start.  Mason Bakker led the Dux with 14 points and Nathan Beyer added six points.  Returning junior, Eli Steffen, pitched in with 10 points.  West will be back in action for a boy's tripleheader on Friday at Reeths Puffer.
