UW-Platteville Wins Men’s Basketball Tournament Crown-Mar 5, 2025
University of Wisconsin-Platteville posted an 89-68 victory over UW-La Crosse to win the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) Men’s Basketball Tournament (presented by Culver’s) at Bo Ryan Court at Williams Fieldhouse on Feb. 28.
UW-Platteville (25-2) won its second straight tournament title and fifth in program history. The Pioneers also secured the conference’s automatic NCAA bid.
Against UW-La Crosse (22-5), the Pioneers turned a 10-9 deficit with 12:27 remaining in the first half to a 39-20 advantage with 2:23 left before halftime. UW-Platteville's defense limited the Eagles to just 8-of-28 (28.6%) shooting in the first 20 minutes, forcing five turnovers and blocking three shots.
After leading 41-28 at the start of the second half, Logan Pearson (6'3''-F) and Brady Olson (6'0''-PG) contributed to the Pioneers increasing the lead up to 22 just four minutes into the second half, and a three-point make by Aiden Wieczorek (6'3''-G) pushed the gap to a game-high 25 at 62-37 with 14:34 remaining.
The Pioneers continued to find success from beyond the arc, as Pearson, Olson, and Ben Probst each connected on triples over the next several minutes to keep the lead hovering around 20 before the final horn sounded.
Five Pioneers finished in double figures, led by Pearson's 22 points on 8-of-15 shooting. Olson added 15 points with a team-high five assists, while Probst (13), Joey Fuhremann (6'8''-F) (12), and Lewis (11) joined them in double digits. Fuhremann also grabbed a team-leading nine rebounds, while contributing three assists.
UW-Platteville shot 52.4 percent (33-of-63) for the game and 48.0 percent (12-of-25) from beyond the arc. The Pioneers also shot 84.6 percent (11-of-13) from the free-throw line.
JJ Paider (6'7''-F) posted a 19-point, 10-rebound double-double to pace the Eagles, while Dustin Derousseau (6'3''-G) added 14 points. UW-La Crosse finished at 41.1 percent (23-of-56) for the game and 28.6 percent (6-of-21) from three-point range.
