By Becky Walz,

Scoring double digits in every period, the Decorah boys’ basketball team (1-0, 0-0 NEIC) took the season opener from Hempstead (0-1) Tuesday night on the road 73-57.
The Vikes strolled to the lead in the first 23-16 and padded it’s advantage in the second to lead 43-32 at the break. Outscoring the Mustangs 20-12 in the third gave Decorah the cushion in the fourth as Hempstead ever-so-slightly narrowed the gap with 13 points.
Individual stats were unavailable at press time.
