7:15 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 6
MN Girls' Basketball Hub Spotlight Game

Both teams are tied atop the Suburban East Conference standings with identical 9-1 records heading into Thursday’s showdown in White Bear Lake. Park’s only conference loss came in its most recent game, however, a 61-59 home defeat to Roseville, while White Bear Lake fell to Forest Lake on Jan. 21 — its only defeat in a 17-1 start to the season. Interestingly, these two teams play twice in five days in what is sure to decide the conference title, or muddle the picture even further. Creighton recruit Sydney Lamberty (22.3 ppg) leads the Wolf Pack into Thursday’s game against a balanced Bears’ lineup featuring Alison Hinck (11.2 ppg), Niki Daul (10.5 ppg) and Jordyn Foley (7.0 ppg).
