New Prague at Shakopee
7:30 p.m., Friday, Jan. 17

Look for the big boys to bang inside when New Prague visits Shakopee Friday night in a Missota Conference tilt. Both teams feature strong front courts: Shakopee with leading scorer Tyler Weiss and Jake Maiers, both of whom stand 6-foot-7; and New Prague with 6-9 Paul Friendshuh and 6-8 Michael Soderlund. Friendshuh, a Richmond commit, and Weiss are dynamic players with range to their games. They may cancel each other out, so the game should come down to which backcourt shows up to play.
