TOURNAMENTS
Dakota Showcase finishes up today. The bracket play begins at 9 am. And it starts off with a bang with Triple Threat (MN 2nd in 16u level) and Iowa Select I. It will match the interior game and size of Select vs. the quickness and perimeter game of TT. The Dakota Showcase website is a great place to check out the stats, results and more. Whoever wins that may face SD elite in the semis. That will be a great match up.
Alexis Yackley, Northern Lites right now has the most points scored in the one tournament game with 26 points against MN Metro Stars Black. Yackley also has the most points in the scored in the tournament with 50 points in 3 games.
