The Simpson Storm men’s and women’s basketball squads are looking to repeat a pair of games in early January as they host the Spartans of Dubuque on their home court this afternoon.

The Storm women blew out Dubuque 102-65 in their first matchup, a game where the Storm made 20 3-point baskets. The Storm men fell behind the Spartans in the first half, but a strong second half and timely shots allowed them to pick up a comfortable 86-71 win. The games this afternoon can be heard live on AM 1320/FM 95.3/FM 94.3 KNIA, KNIAKRLS.com, and the free KNIA mobile app, with Andrew Swadner and Rick Wilson on the play-by-play. Pregame begins at 1:45, with tip-off at 2pm.
