After a bit of a slow start, the Teutopolis Wooden Shoes kicked it into gear Tuesday night and rolled to a 57-44 win at home over Monticello.

The Sages jumped out to a 15-11 lead after the first period, but the Shoes responded by outscoring them 32-19 over the middle two quarters to seize control of the game. T-Town then outscored Monticello 14-10 in the final eight minutes to secure the victory.

Garrett Gaddis and Logan Lawson were both in double figures for THS. Gaddis finished with 18 points and Lawson, who knocked down four three-pointers, added 12. Tyler Pruemer grabbed 11 rebounds.

The Shoes are now 10-5 on the season. They will return to action Saturday with a game at Warrensburg.
