The Ipswich boys basketball program made an impression in more ways than one during last Thursday's Big Bo Classic hosted by Wolsey-Wessington. First of all the Tigers manufactured a rather convincing 68-33 victory over the Wall Eagles. The other ways? "Yes. Taylor (Thorson) got the Sportsmanship Award and Ty (Kadlec) won a Scholarship," explained head coach Tyler Severson.
