"Defensively, we did a good job on Louie," New Underwood coach Stacy Finkbeiner said. "We ran the box-and-one, we call it the Louie defense. I give our guys credit for playing hard on the defensive end."

New Underwood's Jaron Finkbeiner led all scorers with 20 points and added 15 rebounds to his stat sheet to record a double-double.

Cole Swanson scored 10 in the loss.

"If we would have made our free throws and lay-ups, we would have had an opportunity to knock them off," Finkbeiner said.

Neither team shot well from the charity stripe. New Underwood hit 4-of-10 and White River finished 5-of-9.

"We slowed the pace down," Finkbeiner said.

"They do a lot of pressing. We slowed the ball down pretty well and we were patient."

White River finishes the regular season 17-3 while New Underwood moves to 12-8. Both teams enter their
