Boys’ basketball beats state-ranked St. Cloud Tech

The boys’ basketball team managed to emerge from Tuesday night’s game with a 55-52 victory over St. Cloud Tech, who is ranked tenth in state. Both teams were in the lead countless times during the game, but it all came down to a three point difference.

“There was a lot of anticipation for the game,” said Junior Keenan Brown. “They had a good record and play a lot like we do. We played awesome and the game was close the whole time. It was a fun win for us.”

St. Cloud Tech is currently ranked first in section, followed by Buffalo, so Tuesday’s game was preparation for the Section Playoffs. Sections are set to begin in March.

“Out of the eight sections in the state, ours is definitely in the top four as far as difficulty,” said Head Coach Nicholas Guida. “I absolutely think we have a shot at state this year. All it takes is the right team playing the best basketball at the right time and it’s just about evolving into that team.”

The team plays again tomorrow, February 18, at 6:00 at Big Lake High School. Big Lake is currently 5-8 in conference and is ranked fourth.
