Champlin Park 64 - Andover 46 _____> 14-11


CONGRATS!

The Rebels crusie out to a 36-24 halftime lead and go on and defeat the Huskies. Three players (Okafor 19, Theisen 14, Fuller 11) score in double figures as Okafor post another double double (11 rebounds). Duberry missed his 2nd straight game for medical reasons. The win gives the Rebels 2nd place (12-6) in the conference and brings their season to an end. Elk River, Maple Grove and Blaine finish in a 3 way tie for 3rd place with 10-8 records.

The Box: Whitehead 1, Fuller 11, Nolte 6, Jesinoski 1, Witt 8, Theisen 14, Okafor 19, Zimmermann 4.


The Rebels go into their last game of the regular season with a 1 game lead (11-6) over the RED HOT Blaine Bengals (10-7) who have won their last 4 games. It's simple ... if the Rebels win they would take 2nd place in the NWS league. The Rebels defeated the Huskies in their previous match up back in February 67-60, however, the Huskies are on a 2 game winning streak (Anoka and Centennial). A Rebel lost coupled with a Blaine win at Elk River would have the two teams end in a tie for 2nd place.

The sections look pretty set reguardless of Friday's results. It looks like Irondale will be at Champlin Park next Tuesday night. The Rebels defeated the Knights (Utke 17 and Banks 11 points) in the Anoka Christmas tournament 68-56 behind Duberry's 16 and Okafor's 11 points.
