#6B Wall wins the only ranked matchup in South Dakota on Friday
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) – Extreme temperatures cancelled nearly every high school basketball game that was meant to be played on Friday.
The only ranked team competing before the weekend gets started was Wall, the sixth ranked team in Class B.
The team was on the road at New Underwood.
With the Tigers jumping out to an early lead.
But a couple of quick buckets from Teelan Kjerstad changed that, and from there the Eagles never let up.
Wall won 88-65.
