First Half: Westwood was the team who got on the board first. However the Redmen would take over and show why they’re the number one seed in the district tournament. Marquette was able to put together a 15-0 run led by senior Kameron Karp’s five points. The three point shot was also the theme for the Redmen as the seniors, Brady Wright, Kameron Karp, Ty Lotterman, and Lincoln Sager sending home shots from behind the arc.

Westwood would show life as they strung together a 6-0 run to bring the score to, 19-11 in favor of the Redmen.

The points were few and far between for the Patriots as they weren’t able to get under a 30 point deficit to stop the running clock. Coach Brad Nelson for the Redmen pulled the starters in the first couple minutes of the fourth quarter. That allowed the bench players to get quality playing time for the Redmen.
