The Wolverines closed out the season Monday with a 45-38 win over Stonewall Jackson in Roanoke. Bayne  had 11 points and Dawyot had nine.

That concluded the season for the Wolverines.

“I love where our program is heading in the future,” said Keith. “I look forward to my 8th graders excelling in High School and I am very excited about what our returners will bring us next season. As a team, we got better as basketball players this season, but most importantly we grew as men.”
