Five players in dou

w inning com bination for
the C ardinals against the
perennially tough Condon-
Wheeler team. The Cards
jumped out to an early 7-0
first quarter lead before
the K nig h ts re sp o n d ed .
Three three-pointers in the
quarter kept the Knights in
the game. A Cory Peterson
three-pointer at the buzzer
put the Cardinals up 24-19
after one. The Knights went
on a 5-0 run to open the sec
ond quarter tying the game
at 24. With two and half
minutes gone in the period,
Alan Rietmann finally got
the Cardinals on the board

K nights pulled ahead for
their only lead o f the game
