MLK jr IDEA
Illinois has events/tournaments during Martin Luther King Jr Day. I believe some school in Minnesota could set up an event on this Monday holiday with five games (or four or six) with a city vs suburb or Classic Lake vs Lake or Metro vs Outstate or Class vs Class battles. It doesn't have to be at the Target Center, but I think would work well at a local HS. You could dress this event up with MLK presentations between games using his quotes. I know I would be in attendance.

GAMES OF NOTE
SD
In AA, #2 Yankton knocked off #1 Sioux Falls O'Gorman 50-33
and in a cross class match up, #1B Sully Buttes took out #1A Parkston 48-39
