Prep Roundup: Glen Lake blaze to 14 straight wins; Titans shutout Petoskey 8-0
Feb. 9—BUCKLEY — After a dominating performance at the Traverse City St. Francis Showcase on Saturday, Glen Lake boys basketball continue its winning ways Wednesday and extend the team's winning streak to 14.
The Lakers (14-1, 10-0 Northwest) defeated Buckley (9-8, 7-4 Northwest) 58-39, with Lakers senior Luke Hazelton racking up a team-high 33 points, six rebounds and three assists to keep the Lakers in front of the Northwest Conference with seven games remaining.
"I like what we did defensively, although Hazelton is tough to stop," Buckley head coach Jared Milarch said.
The Lakers started hot by jumping out in front 22-6 in the first quarter and didn't look back.
Glen Lake head coach Rob Flaska called this win a gritty win for the boys despite having the lead the entire game. The Bears switched it up defensively, but there wasn't anything they could do down the stretch.
The Bears had players who racked up buckets starting with Landon Kulawiak with a team-high 15 points, and Jackson Kulawiak with eight.
The Lakers had others contribute to the win. Neil Ihme finished with eight points and team-high 18 rebounds, Ethan Steffke racked up seven points and Cooper Bufalini and Sean Galla finished with four apiece.
The Lakers welcome Suttons Bay on Friday before hitting the road for three games. The Bears have a two-game road trip starting Friday with Onekama and Suttons Bay next Thursday.
