Pioneers Battle With Tigers
Next up for the Pioneers was the team from Prairie Grove. The previous meeting between the two teams resulted in a 21 point win for the Pioneers.
The Pioneers got behind early, and tried to make a run back late in the fourth but ended up losing 65-57. In the fourth the Pioneers pulled within 2 points; unfortunately, the Pioneers had to begin fouling the Tigers and they made all their free throws. Junior Cole Cripps led the Pioneers with 19 points and senior Wyatt Clark was close behind him with 12.
When asked how the game went Clark responded, “I thought we played hard and battled back after getting down but just came up a little short.”
The Pioneers will continue their games this week facing the Lincoln Wolves Tuesday night and the Gravette Lions Friday night, which will also be senior night.
