Nearby: Sioux City, IAMITCHELL — Balanced offense, solid defense and winning plays. The formula was there again for the Dakota Wesleyan men’s basketball team on Saturday afternoon for a 79-73 win over Hastings College at the Corn Palace in the Great Plains Athletic Conference opener for both teams. DWU improved to 5-1 on the season, while handing Hastings its first loss of the season and putting the Broncos on the same 5-1 record. “It's really cool to see different guys stepping up and fulfilling different roles,” DWU coach Sam Nicholson said. “You know, some minutes are more spread out this year and you would think that guys are playing the most they've ever played, just from a personality side of things. They're so invested in the group and they're cheering for each other, which is really cool to see.” Hastings held a 66-62 lead with 6:39 remaining but DWU then scored the next seven points to get in front.

Nearby: Sioux City, IAMITCHELL — The Great Plains Athletic Conference opener was not a kind one to the Dakota Wesleyan University women’s basketball team on Saturday afternoon. The No. 15-ranked Hastings Broncos had something to do with that but the fifth-ranked Tigers struggled on the offensive end of the floor all day, shooting 32.4% from the field in a 63-54 decision at the Corn Palace. “The lid is just on the basket right now,” DWU coach Jason Christensen said. “I looked at the paint shots and we missed 22 shots in the paint. That’s 44 points we left out there. And then we were 0-for-11 from the 3-point line and we shot 50% from the free-throw line. It’s just tough to win when you do that.” In a battle of two tough-minded nationally ranked squads, Hastings (3-0, 1-0 GPAC) was a few steps ahead of the Tigers at almost every turn. DWU was 3-for-18 shooting from the field in the first quarter, which was where DWU dropped into a 17-9 deficit.
