DeLaSalle absorbed Hermantown’s early surge before reminding everyone which team is the six-time defending state champs.

The Islanders trailed by six early, a footnote in an otherwise convincing 90-63 victory in the first Class 3A quarterfinal game Thursday at Williams Arena.

“At least at the start, they were overlooking us and we were able to capitalize,” Hawks coach Andy Fenske said.

Not so, said first-year DeLaSalle coach Travis Bledsoe.
