CG-Belgium boys are limping along

The Cedar Grove-Belgium High School boys’ basketball team has barely been at full strength all season due to injuries.

Now, forward Logan Arrowood is nursing an ankle during a six-game losing streak.

Sam Peiffer has been one of the bright spots. He scored 25 points in a 61-50 loss at Reedsville on Feb. 2. Logan Ketterhagen had 12 points.

Peiffer had 14 points in a 54-51 loss at Sheboygan Christian on Saturday. Ketterhagen had 13 points and his brother Cole had 12. Arrowood had nine.

An Eagle poked the ball way from Logan Ketterhagen in the final seconds. Coach Derek Wimmer wanted a foul but none was called.

Peiffer had 18 points and Logan Ketterhagen had 15 in a 64-52 loss at St. Mary’s Springs on Monday.

Peiffer had 16 and Logan Ketterhagen had 11 in a 96-38 home loss to high-scoring Sheboygan Lutheran on Tuesday.

“We’ve got a young team. They all play hard,” Wimmer said, adding he wants to return to playing a more intense defense.

The Rockets host Kohler to close the regular season on Thursday. They earned a No. 3 seed in the Division 3 playoffs and host No. 6-seeded New Holstein on Tuesday, Feb. 16.
