<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The biggest performance of Tuesday night was North Dakota signed [player_tooltip player_id='1874916' first='Micah' last='Curtis'] moving his team on with 38 points against Washburn. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Playoff Central.</strong> The biggest news of Tuesday night was the games at the Mayo Civic Center and we detailed that in our other article today. Most of Tuesday's action was expected results with favorites earning wins. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tonight, there are 51 games between Class A, Class AAA, and Class AAAA. Most of the games this evening are big school quarterfinals as seven of the eight sections in Class AAA have games and five of the eight sections in Class AAAA have games. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Upset City</strong>. The biggest upset I could see from last night was Fridley defeating 17-win Zimmerman. And the Tigers won 87-76. There are no results posted from this game but this was a nice win for the Tigers and their scoring combo of [player_tooltip player_id='2434723' first='Trenton' last='Woodall Jones'] and Jamichael Breauxsaus-Ollie has been putting 45-50 points together on teams all season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>The Big Stage.</strong>  Every game tonight is at the high seed's home site. And the biggest game of the night is 18-win Rochester Mayo playing at Farmington. This game seems so much like last year's JM at Farmington overtime classic only this time Farmington is dealing with a junior dominated Mayo team that has played strong basketball the second half of the season. [player_tooltip player_id='2417626' first='Will' last='Gyarmaty'] leads Mayo at 17 points a game, [player_tooltip player_id='1617794' first='Ryan' last='Beckwith'] leads the Tigers at 14 points a game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Top Performers</strong>.  [player_tooltip player_id='1874916' first='Micah' last='Curtis'] scored 38 points for St. Louis Park leading his team past Washburn and moving StLP into the section semi-finals. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sixteen different players scored for Wayzata earning a 116-33 win over Armstrong. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2103379' first='Jackson' last='Soroko'] had 25 points for Monticello in a win over Big Lake. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1288748' first='Tyler' last='Wagner'] scored 27 points leading Champlin Park over Irondale. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1617766' first='Keegan' last='Harney'] had 24 points for Maple Grove defeating Osseo.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tip of the Hat to the Career</strong>. [player_tooltip player_id='1448601' first='Desmond' last='Ware'] scored 17 points for Armstrong in his final game last night. Ware is a young man that I recall shooting at our Minnetonka practices and always being at games, it's been really fun watching him grow as a player and get an opportunity to play for a division two school in South Carolina. Ware scored 20.4 points per game this year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
