Orono vs. Minneapolis Patrick Henry at Hamline University
5 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 22

Patrick Henry’s offense was firing on all cylinders in a 107-40 romping of FAIR on Dec. 15 behind the play of backcourt duo of Jordan Lynn (14.2 points per game) and Savion Scott (11.6 ppg). Minneapolis Washburn transfer Terell Smith is also chipping in with 10.2 ppg. 

Lamar Wood provides some experience in the interior with 9.8 ppg, and he'll need it if he's tasked with guarding Orono's Jarvis Thomas. 

A Division I recruit, Thomas has slowly come on. He scored 24 points in the Spartans' 76-55 win over Minnetonka on Dec. 13.

Max Bjorklund was a supplementary player his sophomore season, but he has emerged as the Spartans' top shooting threat with 17.8 ppg. 

Last year, Patrick Henry won this matchup 85-79.
