After winning their second game in a row last night, the Yellowjackets didn't have much time to enjoy it because they were right back on the court Tuesday night to face Luther College (Iowa). After trailing at halftime last night, Superior flipped the script and jumped out to a big lead in the first half. but Luther roared back in the second half. In the end, however, it was Superior who stayed the course and prevailed with a 67-61 victory and a 2-0 record in The Dells.
 
Superior held Luther to 36% shooting from the field in the first half, while Superior shot 55.6% to build a 14-point halftime lead, 40-26. For the second night in a row, Superior was on fire from three-point land. They went 8-for-12 in the first half, and three-pointers accounted for more than half of their field-goal makes.
 
However, in the second half, Superior struggled from the field. Luther held the Yellowjackets to 7-of-26 from the field, while they went 13-of-35 themselves. What helped Superior secure the victory was the amount of free-throws they attempted in the second half. While Luther attempted six free-throws, Superior went to the line 18 times. Superior made 11 of those 18 attempts, and made 13 for the game.
