B-B-E schools closing at 9:15am on Thursday, February 26th

Look outside and you'll know why!

The Jaguars boys basketball game at Kimball Area will be postponed until another night. It will be important that this game is made up, of course, since it is a Central Minnesota Conference game. The Jaguars are in a tight race for the championship, fighting with 1st-place Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted, as well as 3rd-place Pierz.

As of 10am in the Belgrade area, only 2-3 inches of snow had fallen.

As of 10am in the Hoffman-Kensington area (west of Alexandria), over 6 inches of snow had fallen.

By 2:00pm, Glenwood definitely has received 6 to 8 inches of snow.

Update at 4pm... I haven't heard if "The Train" will be airing Friday's Jaguars boys basketball game at Sauk Centre. They may be at Minnewaska Area High School that night covering the NL-S vs. Minnewaska girls basketball game, which is for the overall West Central Conference championship. NL-S won the North title, while Minnewaska repeated as South champions.

By the way, check out the "links" section at the right column... I found the link to the City of Brooten website. I have to say, it is impressive!

**Seedings are in for Sub-Section 6AA-East...The Jaguars got the 5-seed, not what I predicted but I guess we'll take it. They will open playoffs at Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City, facing the host Falcons (4-seed) in Grove City. The game will be held on Thursday, March 5 at 7:00pm.

Other seedings/matchups are as follows:
1- NL-S vs. 8- Melrose
2- Sauk Centre vs. 7- Paynesville
3- Albany vs. 6- Holdingford (a true border battle)


I also heard that Morris Area/Chokio-Alberta did in fact get the #1-seed in Sub-Section 6AA-West. West Central Area is the 2-seed, followed by Minnewaska Area. When I get records and full seedings for that half of Section 6AA, I will get it posted.
