December's Big Games, as of today

As of today, here are our Games of the Day for December. Not all of the high school holiday tournaments are published yet, so some of those could change.

Sat., Dec. 1--The Girls Breakdown Tip-Off--17 games at Hopkins--already published. McKenna Hofschild of Prior Lake set a MN HS girls state record with 63 points vs. Park Center. Check out our report.

Sun., Dec. 2--The Gopher men open the Big 10 season @ Ohio State. The Gophers fell flat against the Buckeyes, 59-79, as Ohio State held Jordan Murphy to 7 points. Amir Coffey scored 19 and Dupree McBrayer 13. But the Gophers are not going to win too many when Murphy scores 7.

Mon., Dec. 3--Houston and James Harden @ the Timberwolves. Wolves roar back from 19 point 2nd quarter deficit, outscoring the Rockets 60-29 the rest of the way.

Tues., Dec. 4--Mpls. South girls @ Mpls. North

Wed., Dec. 26--Timberwolves @ Chicago

Thurs., Dec. 27-Fri., Dec. 28-Sat., Dec. 29--Not all of the Holiday tournaments and matchups are published yet so this could change. But for the moment...

I love the fields at Perham, both boys and girls. The girls feature Alexandria, Roseau and Sauk Centre, plus the home team, of course. The boys have Anoka, Morris and Sauk Centre plus the Yellowjackets. First round action for both is Thursday, Dec. 27.

Then on the 28th, the boys Granite City Classic gets underway with 12 games. Some of them feature Milwaukee Washington vs. Mpls. North, Maple Grove vs. Forest Lake, North St. Paul vs. Osseo and many more.

On the 29th I would want to see the Austin boys @ Lakeville North, and if the scheduling is right then also Grand Rapids vs. Prior Lake (and McKenna Hofschild) at St. Olaf.

Sun., Dec. 30--St. Cloud State @ UMD men's and women's doubleheader.

Mon., Dec. 31--Gopher men @ Michigan
