<p>It is always fun to see a border battle game between North Dakota and South Dakota. PHD watched the Pirates from Hankinson take on the Wilmot Wolves. The #6 ranked Pirates hit the road for the 1-hour road trip and they dominated!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>As expected, the Pirates took care of business but the Wolves did not back down and played hard until the final buzzer. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"small"} -->
<p class="has-small-font-size">It was an interesting start to the game. Wilmot shot free throws before the clock started and they received the first possession. Hankinson received a technical foul for dunking in warmups.</p>
