Mosinee would jump out to a 5-0 lead in the first 2 minutes of their game against Antigo on Friday, January 21, 2022, at home. Antigo’s Wes Ebel would respond with a right corner 3. At the 12-minute mark Kyle Miller finds Keagen Jirschele beyond the arc, splash, Mosinee takes the 8-6 lead. Antigo would battle with Mosinee for the next 5 minutes before Mosinee would start to pull away and finish the half on a 17-6 run which included three three-pointers from Drake Grod and one from Kyle Miller.

Mosinee would lead Antigo 35-20 at the half. Mosinee would force 17 turnovers and get another 6 stops, giving up only 6 field goals to Antigo.
