The Conference Review – Minnesota River

<p>Jordan faced another tough challenge this season but once again won the league and earned a sub-section crown. They were led by two-time league player of the year [player_tooltip player_id="846127" first="Ryan" last="Samuelson"]. </p> <p><strong>The Final Standings (with the NHR Prediction)</strong></p> <ol> <li>Jordan (1)</li> <li>Belle Plaine (3)</li> <li>Mayer Lutheran (2)</li> <li>Southwest Christian (7)</li> <li>Sibley East (6)</li> <li>Norwood Young America (5)</li> <li>Le Sueur-Henderson (4)</li> <li>Try City United (8)</li> </ol> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>The Review</strong></p> <p><strong>At the Top</strong> –  Jordan lost one game in league play this year (versus Mayer Lutheran later in the year) and once again won 20 games winning the sub-section.  It was once again a tough, well taught, disciplined basketball team. </p> <p><strong>The Surprise</strong> –  We thought Southwest Christian would slip more than they did both in the league (10 wins to 7) and over all (stayed about a .500 team).  </p> <p><strong>What Happened?</strong>  - Tri City United won just one league game and one game overall as they just couldn’t score the ball.  They averaged just 40 points a game only three times breaking the 50 point barrier. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Postseason All Minnesota River Conference </strong></p> <p><strong><u>First Team</u></strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="846127" first="Ryan" last="Samuelson"]</strong> of Jordan (Sr)</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="850739" first="Teigan" last="Martin"]</strong> of Mayer Lutheran (Soph)</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="846191" first="Josh" last="Gregory"]</strong> of Belle Plaine (Sr)</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="774747" first="Reagan" last="Koch"]</strong> of Jordan (Jr)</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="957609" first="Tyson" last="Sandness"]</strong> of Southwest Christian (Jr)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Second Team</u></strong></p> <p><strong>Symon Keiser</strong> of Jordan (Sr)</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="774817" first="Dominic" last="Drent"]</strong> of Le Sueur-Henderson (Jr)</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="721889" first="Sean" last="Buchanan"]</strong> of Mayer Lutheran (Sr)</p> <p><strong>Tyren Harris</strong> of Southwest Christian (Sr)</p> <p><strong>Cade Morrison</strong> of Belle Plaine (Jr)</p> <p><strong>Dominick Sudheimer</strong> of Norwood-Young America (Sr) </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Third Team</u></strong></p> <p><strong>Lucas Dose</strong> of Sibley East (Sr)</p> <p><strong>JaBez Bates of </strong>Sibley East (Sr)</p> <p><strong>Dylan Kahle</strong> of Belle Plaine (Sr)</p> <p><strong>Noah Schumacher</strong> of Belle Plaine (Sr)</p> <p><strong>Bryce Sievers</strong> of Jordan (Sr)</p> <div class="subscriber-only"> <p>&nbsp;</p> </div>
