Other games to keep an eye on

Perham vs. Breckenridge, 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 16. Breckenridge (6-2) sits atop the Heart O'Lakes Conference standings with an unblemished league record but rebuilding Perham (7-2), with two conference losses, is always a challenge.

Champlin Park vs. Park Center, 7 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 18. A promising Park Center (7-2) faces No. 1-4A Champlin Park after the Rebels (9-0) dispatched No. 2-3A Totino-Grace 75-65 on Feb. 11.

Lakeville North vs. Lakeville South, 7 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 18. Lakeville South (5-4) won 56-52 at Lakeville North on Jan. 22 but lost four of five matchups following that game and fell out of the Class 4A top-10 rankings. The No. 8-4A Panthers (5-4) get a chance for payback in this intracity rematch.
