Rosemount at No. 1 Eastview
6 p.m., Monday, Feb. 3

At first glance this looks like a 19th straight victory to open the season for top-ranked Eastview. The Lightning have already beaten Rosemount 67-50 on Jan. 7 behind 22 points from Madison Guebert (19.8 ppg), 18 from Kari Opatz (13.9 ppg) and 12 from Hana Metoxen (8.4 ppg). Meanwhile, the Irish have been reeling, with a win-one, lose-one schedule since the turn of the new year. Their 8-10 record isn’t inspiring, but in the game-within-a-game, it will be fun to see Guebert, the state’s best junior point guard, go head-to-head with Rosemount’s Hannah Grim (21.6 ppg), a terrific senior combo guard with great shooting touch and speed with the ball. In that first game, Grim poured in a season-high 38 points.
