The Rhinelander boys basketball team played a non-conference game at home Tuesday night. The visiting Wausau East Lumberjacks showed the Hodags they need to improve against taller athletic teams, as the Lumberjacks defeated the Hodags 81-54.

East led by 20 at the half and the Hodags kept the score at that margin for awhie in the second half, but the East pulled away.

Leading scorers for Rhinelander were Quinn Lamers with 12, Peyton Erikson with 10, Drake Martin finishing with 8 and Travis Towne had 7.  Photos by Bob Mainhardt.
