Sturgeon Bay opened the WIAA Division 3 regional tournament with a 62-59 win over Cedar Grove-Belgium on Tuesday. The Clippers (13-10) were able to overcome an early 9-2 deficit and took a 32-27 lead at the half. Sturgeon Bay built a 44-31 lead at the 14:00 minute mark but the Rockets (12-11) chipped away and eventually took a 56-55 lead with 1:37 remaining. But the Clippers would answer right back when Andrew Carbajal found Carson Talbert with a go ahead basket moments later. Mitchell Jackson hit a pair of free throws with :28 seconds to play that made it 60-56 as he passed 1,000 career points. Talbert finished with a game high 23 points, Jackson added 13 and Gunnar Tebon 11. Sturgeon Bay will play at Denmark on Friday.
