The Miner machine has continued it’s dominance over the past week going 3-0 between the boys & girls teams. The boys won in thrilling fashion on Wednesday vs. Ishpeming on a game winning three-pointer by Eric Lori. On Thursday the girls team managed to keep the excitement level in Lakeview Gymnasium turned up to 10 with a 42-41 victory over Gwinn. After another boys win vs. L’Anse on Friday, Negaunee basketball pushed its combined win-streaks to eight overall.
