Osseo at Robbinsdale Armstrong
7 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 5

Maple Grove may have opened the season as the favorite to win the Northwest Suburban Conference West Division, but Osseo and Robbinsdale Armstrong have thrown their hats into the ring as contenders for the division crown.

The undefeated Orioles (10-0, 5-0), ranked No. 7 in Class 4A by Minnesota Basketball News, look to remain atop the division standings when they play at the No. 9-4A Falcons (7-3, 4-1) this week.

Armstrong defeated Osseo in both matchups last season en route to a second-place finish in the conference.

The Orioles have jumped out to a great start this season thanks to a balanced scoring attack led by sophomore guard Zach Theisen (15.3 ppg) and senior guard Damario Armstrong (13.1 ppg).

The Falcons counter with sophomore forward Race Thompson (17.6 ppg) and senior guard Jubie Alade (13.6 ppg).
