Out & About: Itasca/MN West

#5 posting 2.24.2006

Game #4 MCCC Tournament
Itasca 77, MN West 58

I'll make this short and sweet since they are closing shop. Itasca led at half 32-30. They went on a 12-0 run to start the second half. MN West had a 0/12 drought stretching back to the first half. The press really got to MN West early in the second half. They burned three time outs in the first 2:10 of the second half. Itsaca never was seriously challenged after that.

You'll get the player evaluations later

There were turnovers like pin ball in this contest. Neither team was extremely sharp.

Sorry this is short, but I need to get back home too.
Check back later (like Sunday) for full detail. I'm planning on being in Worthington tomorrow for the 3A South quarterfinals.

Next up tomorrow am.
