Tragedy befell Joe Bergstrom a week before practice started, when he shattered his thumb. Because of this injury, he will be out for six weeks. The team will really miss his presence on the court.
The boys basketball team has had two different scrimmages against six teams. The Bulldogs competed very well against the competition, not losing a single game.
Coach Carstens and the team have a positive attitude towards what is to come this season.
