Tuesday night on KWAY Country the Waverly-Shell Rock boys basketball team won at least a share of the Northeast Iowa Conference Championship. The Go-Hawks beat Charles City 62-57 to at least share the conference title. If Charles City loses Friday to Decorah the Go-Hawks will win the championship outright. Last night Waverly-Shell Rock led by nearly double-digits but couldn’t hit free throws down the stretch keeping the Comets in the game until Mosai Newsom drained two charity shots to seal the game. Four Go-Hawks finished in double-digits scoring while Jack Molstead led the Comets with 21 points.
