LAKEVILLE NORTH SUMMER LEAGUE
DE LA SALLE islanders 34, HOPKINS royals 29

DeLaSalle used their quickness and persistence to beat Hopkins on the opening day of the Lakeville North Summer League. The ball was contested every pass, every bounce, and every shot all night. In the end it was a 13-4 run by DLS in the second half that was the difference maker.

This summer league is more straight up regular rules. The game is divided into two 20 minute running time halves. Fouls are shot, and bonus takes effect after the 7th. There is stop time with two minutes to go.

Jamelia Hudnell kicked off the scoring with a three on the first DLS possession. Hopkins scored six points to grab the lead. Four came on second chancers. Another DLS 3, this time by Carissa Wolyniec tied the contest. There were three more ties in the first half, the last coming at 12 all. Tori Rule broke the tie with two free throws and that 14-12 lead for DLS ended the half.

Laura Bruce tied the game with a drive on the second Hopkins possession in the second half. After that DLS outscored Hopkins 13-4 to take a 27-18 lead. This stretch lasted 11 minutes. Wolyniec scored and was fouled to put DLS up for good. That started a three possession scoring string. Hopkins went on a 7-2 run to cut the margin to 29-25. Hanna Potter made two free throws to keep the margin at four with 57.2 left in the game. Rule scored again to make it 33-27 with under 50 seconds left. Hopkins tried the three ball on their next two possessions, each time they missed and DLS boarded. Free throws finished up the game.

Kara Elofson did not play tonight for Hopkins due to an injury. Hopkins had a deep, deep, deep bench playing over 12 players.

In the game next door it was Eastview over Apple Valley 36-28.
