Playing with the pressure of being defending state champions all season didn’t seem to phase the Beaver Dam Beavers as they captured a second straight Division 2 title Saturday night at the Resch Center in Green Bay, defeating New Berlin Eisenhower 51-41.
Freshman Matty Wilke led the Beavers with 16 points while Paige Schumann added 14 including 8 straight that turned an early Lions lead around.
Beaver Dam went 26-2 on the season and is the first team to repeat as Division 2 champs since Green Bay Notre Dame in 2013 and 2014.
New Berlin Eisenhower was led by Hannah Plockelman with 15 points as they finished 24-4.
