In the rematch of the two Red Rock Conference foes, the Rebels hosted HLOF Tuesday night, looking to move past the tough second half they endured Monday night against SWC. From the tempo that the Rebels started the game with, they did just that. Moved on and maybe played their best half of basketball of the year.

This game would be a tale of two halves as MCC traveled to Edgerton for the rematch of the two Red Rock Conference teams. MCC got the better of the Flying Dutchmen in the first game, winning 88-67, but that game was closer then the score would indicate.

The Fulda/Murray County Central Warriors, as they come to the end of their regular season, with their last 6 duals in two triangulars, ended up with 4th place in the section, and a home team advantage to earn their place into the final four against Pipestone, Thursday February 15th. Very exciting to see these Warrior wrestlers continually moving forward making dreams come true.
