Wilmot Boys Basketball

Wilmot can’t keep pace with Stoughton

LAKE GENEVA — Simply put, the top-seeded Wilmot boys basketball team ran into an opponent that did little wrong Thursday night.

Second-seeded Stoughton seized control in the second quarter and never let off the gas in its 66-39 victory over Wilmot in a WIAA Division-2 sectional semifinal at Badger High School.

“They just made plays,” Wilmot first-year coach Jake Erbentraut said after his team’s first sectional appearance since 2002 and third postseason loss to Stoughton in the last four seasons.
