Tourney:  Coon Rapids – Nov 16th-18th  

The boys did very excellent this weekend. We were 3-0 and took first place. There was very balanced scoring from all of the boys as well as determination and drive shown by all. I am very proud of the effort they put forth and the confidence they are showing.

Game one against Spring Lake Park- this was a rematch from our third game from last tourney that we lost by one. We redeemed ourselves and beat them 43-36. Our leading scorer was Rusty Albrecht with 16 points.

Coleman Hayes-6 points, got in foul trouble early
Jordan Peterson-5 points
Kyle Patterson-4 points
Mason Babcock-2 points
Rusty Albrecht-16 points
Taylor Houle-4 points
Tom Sladek-1 point
Tyler Milless-5 points
Jeff Landin-0 points

Game two  against Anoka- A very physical game was played by Anoka, but the boys took it in stride and won 64-31. Coleman Hayes was leading scorer with 26 points in only the first 3 quarters (he sat the entire 4th) An amazing effort.

Coleman Hayes-26 points
Jordan Peterson-4 points
Kyle Patterson-6 points
Mason Babcock-11 points
Rusty Albrecht-7 points
Taylor Houle-2 points
Tom Sladek-6 points
Tyler Milless- 0 points
Jeff Landin-4 points

Game three against Andover for 1st place-Within 5 points in the 1st quarter and then with a little pep talk at the break the boys turned it up and pulled away never letting them get within 16 from the half on. Coleman Hayes was phenomenal again with 18 points and 20 rebounds (we tracked rebounds also for the third game). Cole did sit the entire 4th quarter again also.

Coleman Hayes- 18 points 20 rebounds
Jordan Peterson-5 points 2 rebounds
Kyle Patterson-3 points 0 rebounds
Mason Babcock-4 points 11 rebounds

Jeff Landin-1 point 3 rebounds

Tournament Record: 3-0

Season Record: 4-2

Elk River Tourney- 0-3
we played some good A teams as well as a very good Rogers B team and it showed. We were all very disappointed to lose all 3 on our home court.

Tartan Tourney- 1-2
The team showed great presence by staying within striking distance in the 2 losses against Buffalo's A team and a very good Chisago Lakes team, and by pulling out the win against Fridley they are back on track to where they were a few weeks ago.

Season Record: 5-7
