Wolves fall to Warriors

DEER RIVER— The Timberwolves slipped to 10-10 on the season as they fell 72-45 to the Warriors here on Tuesday. Breakdowns on both offense and defense hampered Ely’s cause. “We didn’t shoot the ball well and we really struggled rebounding against them, and they got many second chances on the offensive end,” said Head Coach Tom McDonald. “I thought we played a bit better in the second half, but we dug ourselves too big of a hole early.”
The Wolves fell behind early and were down 41-22 at the break and couldn’t recover in the second half. Junior Caid Chittum had a big night, pouring in 22 points for Ely, but it just wasn’t enough. Sophomore Jack Davies added 14 points and sophomore Drew Johnson posted seven rebounds.
The Wolves travel to Aurora on Friday to take on Mesabi East.
