News (from MN Girls BB Recruit)

7:45 PM: Rogers (#2AAA) vs. Lakeville North (unranked)

The Royals (17-2) are on a roll, winning 12 games in a row. They use a disciplined offense and defense that has allowed them to dictate tempo in all the games they have played. Jennifer Dowd and Casey Mann give the Royals a 1-2 perimeter punch opposing teams have trouble stopping. The Royals aren't deep, but have managed so far to remain consistent. Lakeville North (11-8) has been up and down this season. After a 9-2start, the Panthers lost six in row. They have plenty of talent as6-4 Cassie Rochel anchors the middle. Kaiya Sygulla and freshmen Rachel Banhem should create a great perimeter contest versus Mann and Dowd. It should be an interesting game between traditionally strong programs.

Rogers key wins: Becker (twice), Osseo, STMA. Lakeville North key wins: Kennedy, Rochester Lourdes, Rochester Mayo.
