Washington vs O’Gorman Match-Ups. Matt Cartwright vs Jack Talley is excellent on the wing, Carter Kosiak and JP Costello vs Zach Heins, Isaac Goeman, and Emmanuel Akot is up front, and the Joey Messler versatile talent could give O’Gorman length on Logan Uttecht or Messler will face Angel Arroyo.
Conference Tournaments. The 281 Conference Tournament, West River Tournament, and Jones County Tournament all finish up on Saturday. The weekend end of the week events should bring together full days of basketball with many rivals included
Friday Night’s Main Event. Brandon Valley versus Brookings at Brandon Valley is a game that will grab the attention of the area. Are they contenders? This is a game that will let us know….The Groton Area vs Sisseton game is also noteworthy and the Rapid City Stevens vs Sturgis Brown contest is the game of the night on the western side of the state. Is Sturgis Brown’s great start something that could lead to bigger things? This game could be an indication. Strugis Brown also plays Rapid City Central the night before…
