The Final Standings (with the NHR Prediction)
- Jordan (1)
- Belle Plaine (3)
- Mayer Lutheran (2)
- Southwest Christian (7)
- Sibley East (6)
- Norwood Young America (5)
- Le Sueur-Henderson (4)
- Try City United (8)
The Review
At the Top – Jordan lost one game in league play this year (versus Mayer Lutheran later in the year) and once again won 20 games winning the sub-section. It was once again a tough, well taught, disciplined basketball team.
The Surprise – We thought Southwest Christian would slip more than they did both in the league (10 wins to 7) and over all (stayed about a .500 team).
What Happened? – Tri City United won just one league game and one game overall as they just couldn’t score the ball. They averaged just 40 points a game only three times breaking the 50 point barrier.
