Creston freshman basketball picked up a win over Shenandoah Tuesday night, winning 56-34.

Creston beat CD Thursday night in a 29-25 “barn burner,” as Dornack described it.

Wurster scored four points and Crawford scored seven. Patrick Varner scored eight points.

“We held the lead for most of the game CD’s squad hit a three to put them up 22 to 21 late in the fourth,” said Dornack. “We had a timely lay-up and we hit just enough free throws to put it out of reach.”
