In the final game of the day Edina and Breck went up against each other. The score went back and forth early in the contest.  
 
Edina was not afraid to shoot the ball from anywhere on the court.  If they thought that they had a good shot they wouldn’t be afraid to shoot it.
 
Breck did a good job of getting out and making baskets in transition. They were able to get layups.
 
Breck went to a zone defense midway through the first half. They looked to force Edina to make long shots.
 
Neither team went on run in the first half as the score was tight.
 
Max Lynch was all over the floor for Edina. On the offensive end Lynch would call for the ball and his teammates did a good job of getting him the ball in spots by the basket where he would make good layups.
 
At halftime the score was Edina 32, Breck 27.
 
As the second half got underway both teams continued to attack the basket on the offensive end.
 
The score went back and forth early in the second half. There were many ties and lead changes in the second half.
 
Both teams didn’t give up easy baskets in the second half. They played under control and at a good pace.
 
Breck didn’t back down as they were able to hang around throughout the whole game. In a good hard fought battle that came down to the wire Edina came away with the 59-55 victory over Breck.
