Mustangs Defeat Scotties in Thriller to Start 2024

The first game of 2024 was an exciting one for the Malta Mustangs, who overcame a 13-point deficit to defeat the Glasgow Scotties 55-52 in a thriller that came down to the final buzzer last Saturday, January 6, in Malta.

Malta was led by junior Bohdi Brenden who had 19 points, as well as five rebounds, five assists, and four steals. Junior Treyton Wilke had 17 points and three rebounds.

"We came out and played hard. We battled hard because they are a big team," Wilke said. "We are short, strong, and had to box out to get rebounds. That was our game plan. We had to play hard defense."
