The MCC Rebel Boys Basketball team came into last week knowing they were playing their toughest four-game stretch of the season. The Rebels would play the top two teams in the Camden Conference and the top 2 teams in the Red Rock Conference over the span of one week. Last week, the Rebels lost the first three games of the stretch getting blown out by RTR and then losing to both Lakeview and WWG late in the game, when the offense went cold or turnovers were committed at terrible times. That left the final game of the run, Tuesday at home against Southwest Minnesota Christian. The Eagles are again one of the top teams in the area and were coming off a 3-point loss to RTR on Monday night. This would be a game the Rebels will never forget.

The MCC Rebel Girls Basketball team looked to put together a winning streak for the first time this season when they played host to the WWG Chargers on Friday night. The Rebels beat MLAC on Tuesday night and MCC was hoping the momentum of a win over MLAC would lead to a great second game of the week against a team MLAC beat earlier this season. That unfortunately didn’t happen for the Rebels.
