St. MARY'S ELI BANKS goes up for a shot under the bucket against Ainsworth last Friday, Jan. 9.

After over one week away from the court, the St. Mary's Cardinals made their grand return last Friday, Jan. 9, against Ainsworth. And what a return they made.

Right from the get-go, it was clear who was in charge. The Bulldogs were dropped 21-7 in the beginning. The opponent started to catch up in the second quarter, but they couldn't quite manage to reach the Cardinals. A huge play from the Cards left the Bulldogs broken when they pulled ahead 27-2 in the third. With nothing left to do, Ainsworth was forced to hand the crown to the Cardinals.

Ben Barlow had a big night with 17 points, shooting eight of 10 two-pointers for 80%, as well as nine rebounds and seven steals; Logan Brabec had 15 points and eight rebounds; Lane Bybee also with 15 points, six rebounds and two steals; Xzavier Parks had six points and two rebounds; Eli Banks had five points, 13 rebounds and one steal; Drake Berg had five points and one steal; Max Berg had four points; Ruger Kraft had three points; Memphis Brabec had two points and one rebound; James Eby had five rebounds; and John Mlnarik had one rebound.
