The MCC Rebels were back at home on Tuesday when they played host to the Coyotes of Heron Lake Okabena Fulda. The Rebels were starting the second half of their schedule against the Coyotes who beat them by 15 points back in December. The Coyotes are a senior-dominated team who with a win would get back to 500 with a 9-9 record. The Rebels were hoping for their first conference win of the season. The Rebels would play a much more aggressive game on the defensive end but offensive struggles would cost them another game.

The MCC Rebels finished a busy week at home against the Eagles of Southwest Minnesota Christian. The Eagles are at the top of the Red Rock Conference again this season with a young roster that includes just a pair of seniors. The Eagles are a team that will give the Rebels problems because they are big and fast plus they like to pressure the ball all over the floor. The outcome of this game was decided early on.

The MCC Rebel Girls’ Basketball team was on the road this past Thursday night to take on the Falcons of Red Rock Central. The Falcons have been very consistent over the years battling with the top teams in the Red Rock Conference. They have been in the top half of the Red Rock this season even with a large number of injuries and illnesses that have cost the team key players nearly all season. Karli Arkell has been one of those players but she was back on the floor against the Rebels who were looking to turn their season around after an ugly loss to the Wolverines of Mountain Lake Area Comfrey on Monday night.

MCC would play a tough game at their best in some time but it wouldn’t be enough.
