Wampus Cats swept by Stillwater Christian
KALISPELL, Mont. — Axel Anderson had a breakout game with a season-high 14 points to lead Clark Fork, but Stillwater Christian simply had too much offense, as the Wampus Cats fell 64-34 on Thursday in nonleague boys basketball in Montana.
Tristin Bristol added six points, 11 rebounds and three steals for the Wampus Cats (3-9), who struggled offensively as Stillwater continued to press into the fourth quarter despite the score.
“We actually played OK, we just couldn’t hit a shot. We had some good looks, they just weren’t falling, and that’s what we had to do to against that team,” said Cats head coach Corey Vogel, lauding the play of Anderson. “He was really aggressive on offense and played great defense.”
Clark Fork hosts Wallace on Saturday in a North Star League game.
Clark Fork scorers: Bowen 1, Nesbitt 2, A. Anderson 14, Klein 4, Hazinsky 3, Boudousquie 0, Bristol 6, Bahr 2, E. Anderson 2.
