Game Review
Osseo: Osseo played a team game as every player who played scored and played a role. This was really a balance game for Osseo. Osseo turn defense to offense, ran on fast-breaks and scored in the half court.
Bridgeport Tulser (7pt 2ast) had a solid game and seemed to be in good basketball shape, Ian Theisen (6pt 6reb) only really played half the game. Osseo made 7 shots from deep, but still took to many. , Tyrin Vann 12 and Rakeem Felder 11. (Wheeler Baker lead the team in scoring in his varsity starting debut with 14)
Anoka: Anoka did not really have a bad game, they just could not get stops to cut into Osseo lead once they got it. Malcolm Seals played a solid game with 10 points in each half for Anoka. Anoka lost this one in the paint and on the boards.
