“We got off to a solid start, but the difference today was we were able to sustain it and stay pretty solid throughout the game,” said Fruitport head coach Steve Erny. “This group has taken some of the early losses and learned from them, and I like the direction we are heading.”
Freshman Hudson Hazekamp led the Trojans with 15 points, including four three-pointers.
Ryan Bosch added 14 points, DayDay Williams had nine and Kyle Burke scored eight.
Fruitport will visit Comstock Park on Tuesday in another non-conference matchup.
