UW-Superior gets a full-team effort to down Finlandia

The University of Wisconsin Superior got points from 16 different players as the Yellowjackets rolled to a 79-43 victory over Finlandia University on Saturday afternoon at Mortorelli Gym.

UW-Superior (6-3) allowed only single-digits scoring in the first two quarters, posting identical 20-8 scores in the first and second to take a 40-16 lead to the locker room. The Yellowjackets only expanded on their lead from there, eventually downing Finlandia (3-5) by a 36-point margin. Head coach Don Mulhern emptied his bench as 18 players saw the court for the Yellowjackets.

Sophomore forward Hannah Norlin (Litchfield, Minn./Litchfield H.S.) and freshman forward Eva Reinertsen (Duluth, Minn./Homeschooled) posted matching 10-point, five-rebound lines to lead UW-Superior.  Junior forward Bailee Bartunek (Audobon, Minn./Lake Park-Audobon H.S.) added nine points and a team-high six rebounds. Seven different players had at least five points for the Yellowjackets. Molly Berg scored a game-high 11 points off the bench for Finlandia.
