“We got better in our transition defense in that game on Saturday so we just need to score the ball a little more,” Cornelius said.

Wollert had a big day on the boards, with 12 rebounds. Greenwald added nine boards against Pine Bluffs. The two combined for eight points and six steals. Greenwald had the only assist for the Lady Doggers on Saturday.
“We are fortunate with our schedule that we are always challenged,” Cornelius said. “We can never dial it back on a night and that helps us get better.”
