Up Next Elk River

The Rebels (10-4) take on the Elks (10-3) at home on Tuesday January 26th for the first time this season.

The Elks are led by junior Ben Erickson who is averaging 12 points a game and like the Rebels, play mostly seniors. The Elks started drawing some attention early in the season when they blew out Anoka 90-56. The Elks defeated (4-2 in the conference) Coon Rapids 80-55 last week as we all know Coon Rapids upset the Rebels a couple of weeks ago, however, they did lose to Park Center last week. The Elks started the season doing whole sale changes (five in five out) but have now changed that strategy.

The Rebels, who are 5-1 and in a three way tie in the conference for first place, need this game to keep pace with conference leaders Anoka and Osseo who face each other in Anoka on Friday. Our Rebels, who are averaging 72 points a game, are on a three game winning streak (Brandon Davis had a season high 19 points Friday at Centennial) and have won 9 of their last 11 games.

Tip off at the field house is 7pm.
