The Gorillas, led by Colt and Landon Keiser who combined for 12 of the 14 third quarter points, tied the game at the end of the third quarter, 38-38. The Gorillas took the lead early in the fourth quarter but the Thunder kept it close until late in the quarter when the Gorillas were able to pull away and secure the win. Colt Keiser had a huge night for the Gorillas with 31 points and 13 rebounds. Lincoln Juracek chipped in with 12 points and Landon Keiser added 9 points and 8 rebounds for the Gorillas. “We scored on a lot of possessions but most of our made baskets were two point field goals. AC/DC made 10 threes on the night and it seemed like we were trading 2’s for 3’s most of the night until late in the game. We are continuing to improve on the defensive end and on the boards as well.” With the win, the Gorillas are 2-3 on the year.
