MARCH MADNESS COMES TO AN END!!!
|
MAD HOUSE AT TARGET CENTER!
SHOWTIME FOR MINNESOTA GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL
"I like our chances."

MINNEAPOLIS SOUTH VS. ST. PAUL CENTRAL
CHAMPIONSHIP DAY MARCH 17, 2007
SHOWTIME FOR MINNESOTA GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL
This week the Target Center became a MAD house when MARCH MADNESS took over Downtown Minneapolis. It's Showtime for Minnesota Girls High School Basketball. Only the state's best will be allowed to bring it. And only diehard fans will be on hand to watch.
Penny for Penny, St. Paul Central is 30-0. Minneapolis South is 29-2. Minneapolis South with its 3-guard-offense has a chance for a rematch. But first, the Lady Tigers will have to claw their way past Osseo and scratch their way past the winner of the Lakeville North-Champlin Park game to advance to the championship game for the state title.
St. Paul Central will make it to the championship game. The only team capable of playing with the Lady Minutemen is Minneapolis South. But the Lady Tigers will have to play the perfect game. Tayler Hill will need to score 46+ points, dish out 10 assists and get Central in early foul trouble. And on defense, Hill and the Lady Tigers will have to shutdown the likely Metro Player Of The Year, Angel Robinson. But, do the Lady Tigers have a prayer? They'll need to clip Angel's wings to win.
Robinson is at the top of her game. In the open floor, she is unstoppable with her superb ball handling skills and her ability to get to the rim, finish or drop "DIMES". All season, especially in big-games, no team has been able to stop Robinson and the Lady Minutemen. Two Questions: Is Central the best team in Minnesota? Can South play the perfect game?
The answer is... YES... and YES
That's my two cents
