Jaguars handled one of the top Class A teams with ease in the second half today

Early in the first half, Kevin Kuefler took an elbow to the gut - no call, of course.

If Connor is closely guarded... he'll just shoot over you!

Check out these two figures: 36-15 in points off turnovers and 52-20 in points in the paint. Such were the stats that stood in favor of the Jaguars boys basketball team today, after they shredded the MACCRAY Wolverines 86-69 in the Class A semifinals at Target Center.

The Jaguars, now an incredible 32-0 on the season, will face Springfield in the Class A state championship game tomorrow (Saturday) at Target Center. Tip off is at 12pm noon.

Can you believe it? After countless B-B-E teams in girls basketball, wrestling, football, boys basketball, and even volleyball, all struggled to get to the state tournament...we now have a team that has at least a 50/50 shot at winning a state title! The Jaguars volleyball team has made four state trips (05, 07, 08, '10) and knocked on the door of the state title match - back in 2008.

This is the first time, though, in B-B-E history, that we've sent a team to state that is as favored as our Jaguars are this year to win a state championship.
