Lack of rebounding costs Sterling in loss

Hubs hit boards hard

DIXON – The Rochelle Hubs hit the glass hard, and the Sterling Golden Warriors had no answer for it. The result was the Hubs advancing to the Dixon tournament semifinals for the first time in 9 years.

Rochelle grabbed 20 offensive rebounds Friday afternoon, beating the Warriors 51-46 thanks mostly to second- and third-chance points off Hub misses.

"They were more hungry for the ball than we were," Sterling junior Kiarra Harris said. "We didn't box them out, and it killed us."
