Austin at Caledonia
5 p.m., Wednesday, Dec. 28

Two of southern Minnesota's premiere programs square off in game that should be a tough test for both as they close this calendar year. 

The game also features a duel between two pairs of brothers: Austin’s Gach twins and Caledonia’s Noah and Owen King.

Both and Duoth Gach carry the No. 7-3A Packers (2-0) into another successful year. Both, a guard who can shoot and slash, has averaged 26.5 ppg through two games, while Duoth averages 13.5 ppg. 

Freshman Noah King leads the in No. 2-1A Warriors (4-0) with 19 ppg (scoring 26 and 23 in his past two games) and is a force in the post. Elder brother Owen boasts 10 ppg as a point guard and is committed to South Dakota State.

Caledonia defeated Austin 64-42 last year.
