Conference wins in the Classic Lake can be a struggle to get as each team is good. Every night you play you have to be ready to battle. Edina came to Armstrong ready and put on a great show before a good sized crowd.
The atmosphere was electric all night. We had the All-District Middle School band sitting in with the Armstrong band, we had a pre-game celebration for Nicole Dooher acknowledging her milestone of 1000 points and the gym had many visitors that came to get a look at the conference battle.
The game was pretty much even throughout the night both teams having their opportunities to have the lead. But in the end Kara Ryan hit two big shots to close out the game for the Falcons 58-55. Ryan had a lay up off a steal and a 3 that lifted the Falcons momentum. Dooher had a great night leading the Falcons with 19 points 5 rebounds, 5 Assists and 6 steals. Alyssa Marschner chipped in 15 and Alli Hoefer added 11.
The win runs the Falcons conference record to 3-1 and their overall record at 16-3. Next up the Falcons will take on Minneapolis Southwest at Southwest High School on Tuesday. The Falcons will return to conference play next Friday against Minnetonka at home.
