Kee boys basketball team wins two of three games, falls at home to Charles City before sweeping Postville and Turkey Valley in UIC pair
Honoring a “grand” achievement ... Prior to the start of the Kee boys basketball home game with Charles City Monday, January 17, senior Dalton Dibert was honored for reaching the 1,000-point career scoring milestone during the Hawks’ 56-55 home loss to North Fayette Valley Thursday, January 13. The first four points Dibert scored in that game pushed him to the 1,000 point mark in his career, making him the sixth Kee boys basketball player to achieve that milestone, as he joined former Hawks Ric Zarwell, Pat Heiderscheit, Gabe Schultz, Quinn Schultz and Danny Brennan in that “grand” scoring accomplishment.
