NEW BERLIN – The UV boys’ basketball team edged a win Friday night against the Sidney Warriors Friday night.

At the final buzzer, the UV Storm took away a win, 44-43.

“We played solid defense and rebounded the ball strong,” said coach Matt Osborne.

Ethan Grey led the Storm with ten rebounds and seven blocks.

Up by seven at the end of the first, the Storm continued momentum to add another six points in the second quarter.

At the half, UV led 21-19.

UV’s Ryan Postma was the only player from either team to score a three-pointer in the first half.
