While the high school athletes at Pella and Pella Christian enjoy the week off from competition for the holidays, the Central College basketball teams will hit the hardwood this week.

The Dutch women will put their 7-2 record on the line on Wednesday night when they host Monmouth. They’ll take a day off, then head south to take on Webster of Missouri on Friday night.

The Central men are also 7-2, and they head to the Wisconsin Dells later this week. They’ll take on Wisconsin-Stout on Thursday night and Wisconsin-Whitewater on Friday afternoon.

You can catch up on Dutch sports with our next edition of the Central College Radio Coaches Corner tonight on 92.1 KRLS. The show will also feature a chat with former Central College football defensive coordinator Don DeWaard, looking back at his trip to Mexico earlier this month with a large contingent of Dutch football players for the Bowl of the Stars. The show starts at 7:00.
