The Annawan Boys basketball team continued their hot season with a first round playoff victory over Galva. Maddux Heitzler had the biggest night of his High School Basketball career, leading Annawan to victory. It came down to the wire, with Annawan winning a nail-biting finale. On X, formerly Twitter, Coach Alex Coppejans shared his enthusiasm for his team and their resilience in keeping the game close and winning in dramatic fashion.
“Braves survive and advance to the Regional Championship with a last second shot by Gabe Sims to win 49-47. Guys stayed in the fight for four quarters. Maddux Heitzler with 21, Brody Childs with 12, and Brady Heitzler with 10.”
