Blackhawks take third place in Nicollet Holiday Tournament

NICOLLET - When Madelia senior Kendal Peterson scored his 1,000th career point early in Wednesday's boys' basketball game against Nicollet, he wasn't ready to sit back and rest on his laurels.

Instead he was worried that having his team take a time out to acknowledge the accomplishment would affect the momentum he had helped the Blackhawks build by scoring 16 points in the game's first eight minutes.
 
Although the Raiders fought back and produced a nail-biting finish to the contest, Peterson got his wish as Madelia hung on for a 58-56 victory and a third-place finish in the Nicollet Holiday Tournament.
