6:00pm - B-B-E vs. Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg. 7:45pm - Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City vs. West Central Area.
On Saturday night, the Friday losers play at 6pm for third place, and the Friday winners play after that for the championship.
I've got some information on the WCA Knights. They have two outstanding seniors on the team, Beau Kashmark and Colton Blascyk, the lone returning starters from 2009-2010. Last year, WCA went 15-11 and nearly knocked Morris Area/Chokio-Alberta out of the Section 6AA playoffs in the semi-finals in an overtime loss to the state-ranked Tigers.
Kashmark (6’3”) was an All-Conference player last year in the Heart O' Lakes Conference averaging 12 ppg, 7 rpg, 3 apg and 4 blocked shots per game while shooting 51% from the field and 43% from 3-point range. Blascyk (6’0”) was named honorable mention All-Conference last season and averaged 11 ppg, 3 rpg, and 2 apg.
Beyond that, the Knights have many question marks but I'd say they are the Jaguars' top competition at this four-team tournament.
WCA's Blascyk is a play maker, being recently named the Most Valuable Quarterback in the Heart O' Lakes Conference. Kashmark is a two-time state entrant in track and field.
The 5th annual Tip Off Classic will be held at the Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City High School in Grove City. (Same place we were for football on November 5 for the section championship.)
