From the opening tip off with the Cut Bank Wolves on Tuesday, the home boys had the game.
Graham Grubb stuck a nifty jumper for the quick 2-0 advantage. Sam Larson popped home a short shot, Grant Grubb hit a basket and all of sudden the Cowboys had a 6-0 lead.
The Wolves got back into the game with a trey shot from JJ Lighthizer and a bucket from Nate Kavanagh before Devin VandenBos stuffed a couple of free throws for an 8-7 lead after the first period.
Conrad owned the second period going on a neat 15-4 run to lead by 12 points, 23-11 at the intermission.
