MINNESOTA REPORT
AAAA
Hopkins bounced back from Thursday's loss with a 60-46 win over Maple Grove. Jackie Hiebert had 23 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 steals.
Moorhead marred Willmar 73-47. From the Fargo Forum.
AAA
Rogers edged St. Cloud Tech 44-39 in a defensive struggle. From the Elk River Star News.
Fergus Falls held Sartell down 42-34 in a Central Lakes contest. From Craig Olson Sports.
I found it amazing that Mahtomedi added four points to their total after the game was over. I was there to the bitter end and it was Totino-Grace 46-Mahtomedi 20. But I look in the Tribune and now Mahtomedi has 24 points. They had Bethke for six, I had her for two. Don't be conned, Mahtomedi only had 20. Anyone that wants to go possession by possession with me can do so.
