State Tournament Game Preview:
Oakland-Craig (16-5) takes on Elmwood-Murdock (24-1) in the first round of State at 3:15 Wednesday afternoon from the Devaney Center in action that can be heard on 107.9 the Bull. Elmwood-Murdock won 52-45 over Ainsworth in the C2-3 District Final from Boone Central Friday night.
Jeff’s Take on the Game:
This is a very interesting matchup for me. Yes Elmwood-Murdock has the better record, but they haven’t played that tough of a schedule. Oakland-Craig has played a very difficult schedule and is battle tested. The Knights have the State Experience too. I really think O-C has a good chance to win this one. It should be a great game and State ride for this team, and I’m excited to see what the Knights can do at State this time around.
