The Osceola/Winona game is really big. If they split things get really interesting.

I'm glad Winona plays Osceola before Lesterville does.

Scott City has is where they need to be. If they win their games and Hermann beats Maryville one set we will have Scott city and hermann in the finals. If maryville beat hermann both sets there would be the potential for a three way tie.

does anyone know what the website is to watch the games on pay per view?

Well, between the three teams, Lesterville has the better record. I am not so sure how tough the teams are in that area, but, we will know before long. I do know that Winona and Osceola both play pretty tough tournaments and teams throughout their area.

I was told we'd be able to watch the games today through MSHSAA.tv site but that's obviously incorrect. They are going to be streaming tomorrow's championship games though.

I agree with you Kim on Winona playing them first. The next round should be very interesting.

Crader the MSHSAA website has different scores for the Winona/ Lesterville game . I am unsure which is correct?????

Rachel Crader's response:
The scores according to the official stat sheet I was handed were Winona 25-16, Lesterville 25-17.

Until I'm told differently, that is correct. That is also the final score I had and blogged.
