I will be there.? Hopefully it will be as good a game as 3 other Richfield girls games I saw recently.? First, Richfield?defeated Michigan-bound Kate Thompson...
Hey Paul, Do you have excess tickets to the boys tournament again this year? Let me know. I am game to go. BTW, who is ³we² (³usually we sit top row...
The scorebook for the St. Louis Park-Fridley game had one x next to Isaiah Thomas's name, meaning one missed three-pointer. It could be that the scorer missed...
Stew, Teams almost always video record their games nowadays. I¹ve seen a dozen or more games so far this year and every game there¹s a high school kid with a...
They weren't recording last night. I didn't see any video recorders anywhere. Anyway, I'm done at Park for the season (I'll be missing this Friday's game, so...
Oh well. A good lesson in record keeping at the high school level. Tayler Hill DID break Katie Ohm¹s record, BTW, worst case it was earlier this week. Best...
Edina guard Grace Veker¹s father, Steve, is a St. Louis Park grad. I didn¹t catch the year. But his brother graduated in 1966, though in his case I didn¹t...
Not to mention this. Sophomore guard Katybeth Biewen was Edina¹s best player last night. Her sister played in the state tournament two years ago, while her...
Wow. St. Cloud swept Winona at Winona today. The #3 seed St. Cloud men beat the #2 seed Winona 91-77. And the #6 seed St. Cloud women beat (also) #2 Winona...
You probably know that St. Thomas remained unbeaten 53-50 over Wis-Stevens Point to advance to the Sweet 16. Also guard Joe Scott from DeLaSalle was named PoY,...
Not sure if the Gophers will make the NCAA tournament now. They should, with a .500 record in the #2 RPI conference in the country (yes, the Big Ten, not the...
The all-MN team looks more like the all-MN teams of yore‹i.e. Some good big guys but not so great at the guard spot. The Gophers decline pretty directly goes...
You have the possibility of the Big East DESERVING twice as many teams as the Big Ten. The Big Ten was #2 RPI, the Big East was #4. If you think the Big Ten...

Men¹s match-ups. Surprisingly, after losing in the 1st round of the NSIC, SW State is nevertheless the #1 seed and host. 1. SW Minn. State vs. 8. Northern...
I don¹t get cable ;-) But what I said was the Big Ten doesn¹t LOOK that good compared to teams of yesteryear, when there were top juniors and seniors...
Lotsa grumbling about the D2 playoffs. Augustana finished 6th and lost in the 1st round and they¹re in. UMD 5th and 1st round loss, not in. And St. Cloud wins...
If the Big East played such a bad non-conference schedule, why did they have a worse non-conference won-lost record than the Big Ten? I would think that...
I don't think the problem is guard play, although it is a bit down compared to the past 10-12 years when Khalid El-Amin, Troy Bell, Sam Jacobson, Alan...
Good afternoon, I always enjoy seeing your posts of the Minnesota basketball scene, especially since I moved away to Colorado in 2005. Please keep them coming...
You don't need me to tell you what the big guys are doing. D2 The men play today at Marshall. Winona vs.Metro, St. Cloud vs. Augustana, Northern vs. SW,...
It was not a good day. MN teams lost most games against an out-of-state rival. The only wins were against other MN teams. D3 The St. Thomas men joined St....
No, I'm not openly celebrating, but some of you can figure out that I'm smiling vindictively as I read about MCTC losing 58-57 in the national title game: ...
Actually, it looks like it was a misprint in the story. From the Richland College web site (http://www.rlc.dcccd.edu/), it looks like their record was 19-12...
Thanks from all of us. Since I have been out of state for quite a while now, I was wondering if those back in Minnesota could update me. The two most notable...
