The JV team picked up their first win of the season against Reeths-Puffer on Friday, December 7. They were sparked by Carter DeJonge coming off the bench to score 10 points, six of those coming in the first quarter. Defensively, the Dux were stingy, holding Reeths-Puffer to 18 points in the first half. "Our commitment to defense was the difference," Coach Ray said. "We dictated what our opponents could do, and that intensity translated to offensive success." A 20-minute delay caused by a fire alarm could not cool off the Dux, who hit nine 3-pointers in the game, including four in the third quarter to cap a 20-point quarter. "Offensively, our ball movement and unselfishness was key. We drove the ball with purpose and we were able to kick to open shooters who shot the ball with confidence," Coach Ray said. Jake Kender (1), Walter Bouvier (1), Joe Steele (2), and Terick DeJonge (3) all hit three-pointers. The Dux will travel to Coopersville High School on Tuesday, December 11 as they look to pick up another win.
