The Whalers, who are scheduled to host Sturgis this afternoon in the home opener, took the first 30 minutes of the game to solve the Seahawks defense, scoring once in the first half and again in the second half to earn the victory.
“Out of the gates the guys just were knocking on the door constantly. They were playing a great game of possession, passing the ball around. It got frustrating. The defense was so big physically and we kept trying to go down the center and things kept getting broken up,” Korn said.
