The River Queens have advanced to the Substate Final for the first time since 1998 for a chance to go to the State Tournament tomorrow night by beating the North Scott Lancers on Saturday night! Playing without leading scorer Jhaliana Guy, the Queens fought fiercely the whole game and ended up winning on a basket by Carryn Sattler with 6 (or 7) seconds left to give them a 51-49 victory. Lots of girls stepped up in the game on both ends of the court to earn the chance to advance. Scoring for the Queens were Fergurson with 15, Hankins 9, Sattler 8, MacAvoy 7, and Haskell 6. Fergurson and Hankins both added 10 boards while Haskell added 5 assists, 3 steals, and 3 blocks. The Queens play tomorrow night at Clear Creek Amana with the winner going to the State Tournament. The crowd was amazing and SO LOUD on Saturday. The team hopes the crowd can show up and support one more time tomorrow!

It was an exciting night from start to finish for the River King boys last night at Davenport Central. The Freshman opened up handling the pressure from Central, up 10 at the half. The Kings extended their lead to 14 at one point in the game. A late surge was held off by the Kings as they were able to close off their season with a win, 37-35. The Sophomore Kings continued the night of exciting basketball in a back and forth battle. Down 1 at the half, the Kings ramped up the pressure in the third quarter, taking a 2 point lead into the 4th. A transition bucket by Central notched the game at 43, sending it to overtime. The Kings scored the first basket of overtime, but ended up losing by a score of 50-53. The Varsity team went into a hostile environment on Central's Senior night. Down 10-2 early, the Kings were able to weather the storm. In a back and forth 32 minute battle, a last second putback by Cooper Belitz lifted the Kings into a classic victory.
The River Kings Varsity team travels back to Davenport Central Monday night for their first round substate game. Please come support the Kings on the road as they head into what will be a great high school basketball environment. There is strength in numbers! GO KINGS!

Last night the River Kings traveled to Davenport North to take on the Wildcats. The Freshman ran the floor hard and played great team basketball. But a late surge by the Wildcats was enough to outlast the Kings 40-45. The sophomores were in a physical battle, where points were hard to come by. The Kings had a shot to win it at the end, and had a good look but could not close the game with a score of 48-49. The Varsity team was in a track meet, with a fast paced game, the Kings were down 5 at half. A run by the Wildcats separated the points gap, but the Kings rallied to cut it to 10. The Kings could not close the gap and fell by a score of 60-76. The Kings close out the regular season at Davenport Central Thursday night before Districts next week.

Last Friday The River Kings met up with Davenport Assumption for a boys Tripleheader. The Freshman kicked off the evening of basketball continuing to show signs of improvement. The boys hung their hat on gritty defense in the first half, keeping it close. The Kings struggled to stay with the Knights and ultimately fell by a score of 35-65. The sophomores followed the game in a physical battle. The Kings traded blows early, but a quick 10-0 run separated the group at half. The Kings added some pressure in the second half and cut their deficit to 4, but ran out of gas and could not hang on with a score of 60-73. The Varsity Kings came out slow, digging a 6-19 hole early. The Kings continued to battle. The Kings were hitting from deep, shooting 45% from the arc with 13 makes on 28 attempts. The Kings were able to hold off the Knights late surge to come out with the 66-63 win. The Varsity team completes the series sweep against the Knights this year. The Kings find out their district pairing later today and look to close out the regular season tonight against Davenport North and Thursday vs. Davenport Central. Go Kings!

The Varsity Kings came out slow, digging a 6-19 hole early. The Kings continued to battle. The Kings were hitting from deep, shooting 45% from the arc with 13 makes on 28 attempts. The Kings were able to hold off the Knights late surge to come out with the 66-63 win. The Varsity team completes the series sweep against the Knights this year. The Kings find out their district pairing later today and look to close out the regular season tonight against Davenport North and Thursday vs. Davenport Central. Go Kings!
