Up Next Osseo

Well, here we go again.

The Rebels, will be taking on cross town conference rival Osseo Orioles (currently on a 4 game winning streak) for the 3rd time this season. The Rebels swept the Orioles during the season and ended Osseo’s four year home winning streak.

The Orioles (#3) who defeated the Centennial Cougars (#6) in their first section game, 71-44, are led by seniors Aaron Anderson (13 ppg), Chris McMorris (12 ppg) and John Rowland (10 ppg).

The Rebels (#2) who had their leading scorer Kyle Zimmermann (16 points & 7 rebounds) return last week in the team’s first round conference game in which they defeated a spirited Spring Lake Park(#7) team 71-58.

Look for this to be highly competitive intense game with the Orioles bringing everything AND the kitchen sink.

The balanced scoring Rebels who have four players scoring in double digits per game are averaging 70 points a game. They have won 20 of their last 23 games and are currently ranked #5 in the Minnesota Preps poll.

Tipoff is at 8pm following the other semi-final game between Cooper (#1) and Moundsview (#4).
