Champlin Park vs. Eden Prairie
8 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 6

Champlin Park faces Eden Prairie in the Breakdown Tip Off Classic at Hopkins High School on Saturday in a matchup that should prime the Rebels for playing in the competitive Northwest Suburban Conference.

Champlin Park returns two key players - junior center Hanna Crymble (10.8 points per game) and sophomore guard Sydney Hilley (9.3 ppg) -  from a team that finished 17-11 team and lost in Class 4A, Section 6 championship.

No. 6-4A Eden Prairie finished third in the state last season but lost its top scorer when Martha Kuderer transferred to Chanhassen. The Eagles look to senior forward Emma Boehm (10.7 ppg) as a presence down low.
