ELY— The Timberwolves improved to 14-3 here on Tuesday after routing Greenway on the hardwood, 79-45.
The Wolves jumped out early on the scoring prowess of senior Joey Bianco and freshman Jack Davies, who combined for 55 of Ely’s points.
“We led 45-21 at halftime and never looked back,” said Ely Head Coach Tom McDonald.
Bianco led the way offensively with 30 points and ten assists for a double-double, while Davies poured in 25 points. Senior Erron Anderson notched his own double-double with ten points and ten rebounds.
Tuesday’s win came on the heels of last Friday’s 82-51 victory at Littlefork. The game was surprisingly tight in the early going. But Ely ticked off a run just ahead of the break that sent them into halftime up by 16. “We kept building our lead in the second half,” said McDonald. “We played very well defensively again.”
Bianco again led Ely scorers, pouring in 25 points while notching eight assists and seven boards. Davies added 19 points while sophomore Caid Chittum tallied 18. Anderson notched another double-double, with ten points and 14 boards.
The Wolves will head down the road to Babbitt on Friday to take on the struggling Nighthawks. They’ll host Deer River on Tuesday, with a 7:15 p.m. start.
