Apple Valley vs. Lakeville North
7 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 7

Lakeville North hasn’t won a conference title since the 2010-11 season but has a pedigree of success with state tournament appearances five of the past seven years.

Sticking to that pedigree, the Panthers escaped with a 48-46 victory over Rosemount on Feb. 3 where Temi Carda, Caitlyn Peterson and Taylor Brown reached double figures to keep their title hopes alive.

Apple Valley hasn’t reached the state tournament since 2004 but after its 74-63 win over Eastview on Jan. 24, it might be the conference and the Class 4A, Section 3 favorite.

Lyndsey Robson, a University of Wisconsin, Green Bay recruit, led the Eagles with 21 points in a 56-47 win over Shakopee on Feb 3. Brynne Rolland added 14 points.
