Tomorrow, the Kernel wrestling teams will be in action. Both the girls and boys will head to Huron to compete in a Varsity Dual at Huron Arena beginning at 7pm.
It was a successful night for both girls and boys basketball! Each Kernel team notched their first win of the season. The girls were at home against Watertown, and it was a hot shooting night from Londyn Hajek that helped lead them to victory. She led all scorers with 16 points on 4-of-7 from deep and the girls won, 50-31. The boys were on the road against Watertown and had a slow start to the game and led just 12-10 after one quarter. They slowly but surely picked things up and scored nearly more points in the second half (42) than the Arrows scored in the game (44). The boys were led by Markus Talley who had a game-high 27 points and three steals in the 70-44 road victory.
