After a slow start in the first quarter, the Cubs cruised to a 33-18 halftime lead. “We started out slow but the kids had a nice 2nd quarter to open things up,” Coach Alan Bertram reported. “Bon Homme is a very physical basketball team and I felt our kids did a nice job of handling this.”

With the win, Chamberlain stands at 8-2 midway through the season. Bon Homme fell to 1-10.
