The Minnesota Lakers have received a tough draw in this weekend’s Battle on the Hardwood held at Woodbury High School. NC Heat, ranked #1 on Kevin Anderson's recruiting website for the 17U age group, and North Tartan, ranked #4 in the same polling, is lumped in Pool A with the Minnesota Lakers. The top 2 finishers will advance to the championship bracket. The Lakers are coming off of a 4th place finish at the state MYAS Championships held in Saint Francis. If the players can remain healthy, the Lakers might be able to steal 1 game, if not both games, in their pool play. With the other two teams having the expectation to win because of their ranking, the Lakers should be able to play with a sense of looseness, which can only help their efforts. The Lakers are comprised of players from southwest Minnesota and with the MYAS Championships being their first main tournament, expect the Lakers to be on the rise. The team is balanced with inside shooting, and outside shooting, and they are able to interchange players with ease. Definitely a team to watch for in the upcoming weeks.
