A busy night of varsity sports (VIDEO)


Returning to their home mats for the first time since December 3 of last year, the B-B-E Jaguars wrestling team went toe-to-toe with No. 3-ranked Becker in the six-team Jaguar Invitational. The Bulldogs had 236.5 points compared to 232 for the Jaguars. Eden Valley-Watkins took third place with 112 points. Ottertail Central was fourth with 93 points, Frazee was fifth with 72 points and Quad County had 68.5 points for sixth place.

*Here's a video featuring numerous matches tonight:


At Royalton tonight, the B-B-E Jaguars girls' basketball team remained undefeated in the Central Minnesota Conference with a 62-52 win over the Royals. This was a key game of two teams who entered the night with 3-0 CMC records. B-B-E is 10-2 overall and keeps pace with fellow CMC front-runner Kimball Area (9-1, 3-0), who played at Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City tonight.

At home, the B-B-E Jaguars boys' basketball team lost a heartbreaker 58-56 to New London-Spicer in a back-and-forth game. The five-game winning streak ends, and the Jaguars take a 7-3 record into next week's CMC game at Maple Lake (0-4, 0-1). The Wildcats improved to 6-3 overall; they've won six of their last seven games after an 0-2 start to the season. On Tuesday this week at home against Paynesville, NL-S won 62-45.

More to come. I'll get the area scoreboard posted later on Saturday.
