"Pelican Rapids trailed by 11 when Taylor Huseby stepped to the free-throw line with 6:41 to play and scored as many points in the fourth quarter as it did in the first three combined. Despite being 5 of 43 from the field through three quarters, with scoreless droughts of 4:46, 5:02 and 7:06, the Vikings completed a three-game sweep of the reigning section champion Rebels and advanced to meet No. 4 Crookston (26-2) in the final at at 7 p.m. Friday at Concordia."

Bill would strip sports from schools
"Are these people crazy or what?" asked Lou Kanavati, an area superintendent for St. Paul schools and a board member of the Minnesota State High School League, which regulates school sports and other extracurricular competitions. If we want parents and communities controlling who participates rather than people interested in helping young people mature and grow, I'm telling you it would be a big mistake." (Star Tribune)
Nota bene
Even if we win this Friday night, there will be school in Pelican Rapids all next week.
