However, the Redwolves made some adjustments to outscore the Trojans 19-8 in the second quarter and flip the game in their favor to take a 27-22 halftime lead. Clinton was able to build on the lead in the third quarter thanks in large part to their stellar play on the defensive end, holding Madison to 7 points in the quarter.

The Clinton boys JV basketball team had everything working right on Thursday night at Hudson. Facing Hudson for the second time this season, this game seemed to be intriguing on paper. The first time the two teams met, the game wasn't decided until late when Clinton pulled ahead for a seven point win. This game was quite the opposite as the Redwolves cruised to a 61-22 victory to improve to 12-2 overall and 7-2 in the LCAA.

The scoring slowed a bit in the second quarter, but the defense  held serve, allowing only six points in the second quarter as the Redwolves went into halftime with a commanding 32-13 lead.  The second half was not as pretty as the first, but that was in large part due to Blissfield.

It was the defense that made the most noise again, as Clinton held HIllsdale down to single digits for each of the first three quarters to go into the 4th quarter with a 45-22 lead.  Quinn Walden led the Redowolves in the scoring column with 12 points while also adding 3 assists and swiping 3 steals.

However, the Redwolves would find a way to come away with a 60-51 non-league win. The win pushes the Redwolves record to 8-2 overall while remaining 4-2 in the LCAA.  The first half saw several lead changes before the Bulldogs finished the first half off on a big run to turn a five point deficit early in the 2nd quarter into a five point halftime lead.

While the offense didn't get totally in sync until the second half, the defense was able to hold the Bluestreaks to just 11 points in the first half, as the Redwolves went in the locker room with 19-11 advantage. With offense warming up, the defense continued to hold serve in the third quarter, holding Ida to just 6 more points in the quarter.

Walden's play in the first half garnered him much attention from the visiting Tigers in the second half, which opened up opportunities for the rest of the Redwolves to find their scoring niche. Chase Gillman had the big third quarter with 8 points.

The boys JV basketball team traveled to Britton-Deerfield on Wednesday evening to face the Patriots in the championship game of the Holiday Hoops Tournament. The first three games of the tournament didn't provide much drama, as all three games were 25 points or more differential. The lack of drama in the first three games was made up for in the championship game as both the Redwolves and Patriots would trade leads down the stretch, before Clinton would hang on for a wild 54-53 win. Clinton came out in the first quarter to take a 24-11 lead, and it looked like the championship game would be similar to the first three games. However, Clinton would cool off considerably, and would be unable to keep their hot shooting performance in the first quarter in which they made four three pointers, much due to the B-D defensive scheme. B-D started chipping away at the lead in the second quarter, and cut the score down to a 38-30 halftime deficit. A gritty 11-6 B-D advantage in the third quarter would set up the dramatics in the fourth. After several lead changes, Calen Keith's basket with 15 seconds remaining would put the Redwolves up for good. B-D had one more chance, but a Chase Gillman steal would seal the win and the championship for Clinton. The Clinton JV team is now 4-1 on the season and have a remarkable 25-5 record in their last 30 games dating back to the 2020-21 season.  Eli Turner led the Redwolves in the championship game with 18 points. Calen Keith added 15 points on the night, including 8 points in final quarter. Chase Gillman would also reach double figures on the evening with 11 points, all in the first half. Devon Trent, Brodie Stipe, Quinn Walden, and Teagan Zbikowski would all reach the scoring column with 5 points, 2 points, 2 points, and 1 point respectively.  The Redwolves will be off for the Holdiays and return to game action when they face Hudson at home on Thursday, January 5th.

The win advances the Redwolves to Wednesday night's tournament final, where they will face Britton-Deerfield at 7PM in the Patriots gym.  The game against Sand Creek was fairly even through two quarters as the Redwolves would lead 27-20 at the half. A huge third quarter from the Redwolves blew the game open, as Clinton would outscore the Aggies 23-3 coming out of the half. Calen Keith and Chase Gillman were the two to lead the spark, as both picked up the performance on the defensive end with deflections and steals, and found themselves scoring easy baskets on the offensive end. Keith ended up with 13 points in the quarter, while Gillman added 8. For the game, Keith finished with 20 points to pace Clinton, and Gillman also reached double figures with 13 points on the night. Brodie Stipe finished with 9 points, Eli Turner 6 points, Quinn Walden 5 points, Ian Williams 4 points, Teagan Zbikowski 3 points, and Devon Trent, Jayden German, and Jaren Settles all finished with two points. 

After a disappointing performance this past Tuesday vs Columbia Central, the boy JV basketball team was looking to get things going in the right direction on Friday night, and that they did. The team went on the road to come away with a 58-47 road LCAA victory at Blissfield. Although Clinton was in control of the game for most of the night, it was tightly contested throughout, as each time it seemed as if Clinton was going to pull away, Blissfield would close the gap. Blissfield was able to keep the game close from the free throw line as they attempted 25 free throws, making 12, to Clinton's 7 made free throws on 12 attempts.  Devon Trent's 17 points, which included five made three pointers, paced the Redwolves scoring tonight. Quinn Walden came off the bench to add 13 points, including a 6 for 8 performance from the free throw line. The player of the game however, was Jayden German. German came off the bench to provide much needed minutes as there were multiple players battling foul trouble in this game. He was great on the defensive end, and provided some timely rebounding.  Chase Gillman added 9 points, Calen Keith 7 points, Eli Turner 6 points, Teagan Zbikowski 4 points, and Jayden German 2 points, would round out the Redwolves scoring on the night. 

The boys JV basketball team had their second game of the season on Tuesday evening at home vs Columbia Central. The game was the LCAA opener for both teams. Columbia came away with a 48-29 victory. Both teams couldn't get anything going on the offensive end as Columbia took a 14-11 lead to the locker room at halftime.
