Browerville at Nevis
3 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 17
Two frontrunners in Class 1A, Section 5 clash on Saturday with section seeding implications on the line.
Defending section champion No. 4-1A Browerville (1-1) was overpowered last Saturday at the Breakdown Sports Tip Off Classic by No. 5-1A Spring Grove, which used its size to pull out a 58-48 victory.
Bryce Irsfeld was held to 16 points in that matchup, 10 below his 26.1 average from a season ago.
Nevis (1-0) presents a similar size problem for Browerville and should have the confidence for pulling an upset after ousting Sebeka 82-54 on Dec. 6.
Six-foot-3 guard Griffin Chase is a linchpin player for No. 8-1A Nevis and posted 17 points, 10 rebounds, eight steals and six assists in the season opener.
