Mainstreeters girls basketball wins season opener in a blowout vs. Minnewaska Area

In their season opener for the most highly-anticipated season at Sauk Centre in school history, the Mainstreeters girls basketball team traveled west to face section rival Minnewaska Area and came home with a 59-22 win.

Up next for the Streeters girls basketball team: a trip to Hopkins High School on Saturday where they'll take on Bloomington Jefferson in the annual Breakdown Tip-Off Invitational. Tip-off is at 1:15pm. The Jaguars (2-0) are ranked #5 in the preseason Class AAAA state rankings. They finished 11-15 in the 2009-2010 season.

The Streeters, defending conference champions, open West Central North Conference action next Tuesday at Albany.

The Streeters boys basketball team, under first-year head coach Mike Ellens, will begin their season tonight (Friday) when they take on Long Prairie-Grey Eagle in the conference opener at home. Tip-off is at 7:30pm. This will be the last year that LP-GE is a member of the WCCN, as they are joining the Prairie Conference in 2011.

The Prairie Centre North Stars hockey team begins their season tonight as well, when they make a short trip to the west to play Alexandria. The defending Section 6A champion Cardinals went 21-8-1 last year, losing in two games in the Class A state tournament.
