There may not be quite the high-profile games this week compared to the ones last week – in particular the Century vs. Mandan contest – but there are a handful of intriguing matchups featuring potential contenders.
Here are some games to pay attention to this week in Class A:
Jamestown vs. Bismarck Legacy – Tuesday, Dec. 11
Jamestown is off to a really nice start with a pair of wins including one over Bismarck St. Mary’s. Legacy is 3-0 on the season – albeit wins over teams that are closer to the bottom tier than upper-echelon – and winning in dominant fashion. A win for Jamestown would be quite the statement. Cameron Selvig and Courtney Peterson have been great for the Bluejays early in the season.
Bismarck St. Mary’s vs. Minot – Tuesday, Dec. 11
Two teams that figure to compete for top-four finishes in the WDA are off to slow-ish starts. The Saints are 1-2 with losses at Fargo Shanley and against Jamestown while Minot is 1-1 with a win over Dickinson. Allie Nelson is averaging 19.5 points in the first two games. She’s the go-to girl for the Magicians.
Fargo Shanley vs. West Fargo Sheyenne – Friday, Dec. 14
Shanley looks like the clear best team in the EDC through the first couple weeks of the season, sporting wins over Bismarck St. Mary’s, West Fargo and Wahpeton. A win over 2-1 West Fargo Sheyenne would be another high-quality win as the Mustangs are among the contenders in the league.
