A win is a win, no matter how you get it, and Grundy Center girls’ basketball coach Matt Lindeman was excited to head into break with a victory after his team defeated Dike-New Hartford 34-31 last Thursday night in cross-divisional NICL action.
           
“Everybody stepped up at different times and played a key role in this win. It was nice to finish that,” Grundy Center coach Matt Lindeman said. “We didn’t play real well, but we found a way to win.”
           
The Spartans pulled ahead early on a Hailey Wallis three-pointer to make the score 8-5, and they led 10-7 at the first horn. The second quarter was an extremely sloppy one, however, as the two teams combined for just eight points. The Wolverines scored six of them, including a Sydney Petersen bank shot to put them ahead 12-10, and D-NH went into the locker room with a 13-12 halftime lead.
