The Sturgeon Bay Clippers boys' basketball team fell into a hole that only got deeper in their matchup against Crivitz on Friday.

The Wolverines jumped out to a 37-29 lead and nearly matched it in the second half as they beat the Clippers 73-53. Isaak Aune led the way for the Clippers with 13 points. Calvin Richard hit three three-pointers en route to an 11-point evening while Gannon Evers added 10 points.

The Wolverines matched the effort thanks to Jackson Flowers' 16 points and Cashton Mertens' 15 points.

The Clippers play again on Saturday when they battle Coleman.
