"AA" Boys First Round games on 3/1/11

What an interesting night of hoops on Tuesday night in "AA" boys basketball! I wasn't as lucky with my picks this time around as I was with the girls the night before! (Thanks Brent Deckert and the BV Lynxs!) I will start in district one where there were no surprises. OG wins going away over the Bobcats and the Arrows beat the Riders in Watertown.

District two is where it gets interesting. Brandon Valley goes to Washington and upsets the Warriors by two (42-40) giving the Lincoln Patriots a home game this Friday in the District two Championship as they played really well and thumped Yankton 72-41. By the way, thanks Trey Naasz for reading my blog. Good Luck in the championship game on Friday night witch can be heard on ESPN 99.1 with Brad Peterson starting at about 7:20pm.

I was right in district three as Mitchell handles Aberdeen Central 69-46 and Pierre in a close game beats Huron 53-46. Mitchell and Pierre meet at the Corn Palace on Friday night for the district 3 championship.

In district four it was RC Central beating Spearfish 76-61 and Sturgis edges RC Stevens 61-59. I was wrong on my Stevens pick but glad to see it was a close game.  RC Central and Sturgis will meet for the right to go to state on Friday night.

Who is going to take the next step and get to the state tournament on Friday? Do the Lynxs have another upset in them or will the Pates head to state? How about the Knights, can the Arrows slow them down and pull off the huge upset?  Listen to all the coverage of the championship game between Lincoln and the Lynxs on ESPN 99.1 starting at 7:20pm this Friday. We will also have up to the minute scores to see who the four teams are who punch their ticket to state.

Comments and feedback welcome! Thanks for reading and keep listening to ESPN 99.1
