Step IV complete!! STATE will be GREAT!!

The seniors!!! They are a close-knit bunch. (And how about that photobomb by George Borgerding!)

The players are the kind of role models you want around your kids. Here's 2,000-point scorer Brian Goodwin with his adoring followers.

The team and the program's third section championship trophy!

Final score: B-B-E 85, Browerville 53! Time for awards!!!

Coach Montbriand said during part of his post-game radio interviews, "We're thrilled to take care of business tonight against a very good Browerville team. We feel that we belonged at state, and we knew we had to give it our best shot to advance."

The Jaguars open the state tournament on Thursday in Minneapolis. *Prediction: the Jaguars will get a number one seed and play at 11am Thursday in the state quarterfinals.

Who's not going to state: Southwest Minnesota Christian, Minneapolis North and Battle Lake.

Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City, Canby and Red Lake Falls are all IN the Class A state tournament. So is New London-Spicer in Class AA.

How about our crowd!!!!!!! Oh you have to love it!


Internet trouble at home. Grrrr!! Trying to get video up!! I have 377 photos from tonight. Whew!! Love it. I'm guessing Cheryl's got a few hundred herself. Very cool!

Holy cow! At 23:00 tonight I checked my hit counter...1,227 unique visitors here so far today! I haven't seen traffic at that level since last summer.
