The Boone Boys basketball team got their first win over Carroll during head coach Justin Baute’s tenure. On Tuesday, January 12, the Toreador basketball team entered the game following a two-game skid at the hands of Winterset and ADM. Looking to start another streak, Boone started out slow, missing their first four shots as Carroll got out to an early lead of 6-0.
At the end of the first quarter the score was 17-12 in favor of Boone. Carroll’s seniors Dayton Ross, Kolby Molinsky, and Tanner White all hit threes against the ‘Dors.
As the Toreadors headed into the locker room the score was 32-21 in favor of Boone. The emphasis from Baute was to rebound, keep getting great shots, and to finish. Assistant Coach Josh Hoover also added that he didn’t want the opposition to score more than 42 points.
When Boone came back out on the court they started a little slow. Carroll trimmed the lead down to six right away. It was then back and forth for another quarter and a half.
Going into the fourth, the score was 46-38 going Boone’s way. The boys couldn’t put away the Tiger’s though. With two minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score was 60-56. Finally, they extended their lead and dropped the Tigers with a final score of 62-56.
The Toreadors are back in action again in the bullpen on Friday, January 14, as they face off against Shammond Ivory and the Perry Bluejays.
