The Lady Vikings will take on Evergreen Lutheran this Friday, at home, during district play-offs. If they win, it secures a place for the team at the Feb. 11 play-offs.
“Concrte beat us, but what was cool about the game is that the kids learned how to play fast break," said coach Dan Drake. “The game was lit. We had a great time. Mikail dunked a ball and that got the crowd going.”
“A win against league foe Cedar Park will send our team on to District Playoffs,” said coach Tim Hance. “This Friday’s home game is also Senior Night, where senior players are acknowledged in their final career home basketball game. We could use a large community turnout to cheer us onto victory, honor our amazing seniors, and send us on a state run with this great young basketball team. Please come out and show great community spirit and watch some exciting basketball!”

"All of the team helped out with the score," said coach Dan Drake. "It was a good, tough game. It was tied at halftime. We fought back and really hustled. The kids enjoyed the win."
