Both teams came out ready to shoot last night in the North vs. South 8th grade A basketball game.  Andrew Mueller and Tyler Quisling knocked down some big 3's.  The Vikings seemed to play tug-a-war with our neighbors to the North over the lead but in the end came up a little short.

 

Like our Chicago Bears, the South 8th grade B team buckled down and continued to take care of business, defeating Geneva North in dramatic fashion.  Thomas Wiedenhoeft had a great game offensively, JT Frieders dropped a big 3 late, and Matt Fregley came up with steal of the season on the last possession to seal the victory and win by 2.
