The Boys’ Basketball team recently finished their regular season and emerged with the Mississippi Conference title. Their overall conference record was 15-1. The team’s first section game took place on Tuesday, March 9 against the
Brainerd Warriors. The Bison are seeded second in sections, while the Warriors are seeded seventh. The game started out as close scoring and continued that way until the end, with a final score of 37-33, the Bison emerging with their first playoff victory.
“We went into that game expecting exactly what we got,” said Coach Nick Guida. “We knew it was going to be tough playing against a team with such talent that it can scare you. We just focused on the things we could do.”
The second play off game is scheduled for Saturday, March 13 at 3:30 PM at Hollenbeck Hall on the St. Cloud State University campus. The Bison will be facing the Elk River Elks, who previously defeated them during the second game of the season with a score of 36-40.
“This game will be similar to the Brainerd game,” said Guida. “Whatever team comes out ready to play and controlling the ball will be the team who wins.”
