Nielsen while he’s still trying to learn the team’s pulse, he believes they wil...

The girls fell 46-40 to Cody in a low-scoring game where the Lady Wolves lacked energy throughout the competition. “We didn’t have enough energy during our press,” head coach Rick Carroll said. “We looked tired and we had tired legs when we played.” Carroll said the girls defense was good throughout the day, but issues involving communication and court...
