BIGGS, CA (YSBC) - The Biggs Wolverines boys basketball team punched their ticket to a third-consecutive Northern Section Division VI title game after they beat the Hayfork Timberjacks 79-50 on February 24.

Biggs took a huge lead at the end of the first half as they led 41-18 at the break after they scored 25 in the second quarter.

Hayfork had a strong third quarter as they scored 18, but the Wolverines offense was too much. Biggs played the winner of Redding Christian and Etna.

The Wolverines were neck-and-neck with the Lions in the first half as they were within a position of the lead.

The only bad quarter of the game came from Biggs in the third as they struggled from the floor and only put up six points on the board.

The Wolverines were led by senior Hunter Seipert with 13 points and fellow senior Skyler Long led Biggs with seven rounds in the loss.
