In a make-up game played on Thursday, January 12, 2023, Red Lake hosted Cass Lake in front of a packed house.The Warriors kept pace with the Panthers pretty much all the first half and ended up trailing at the buzzer, 38-31.

In the second half the Warriors were still only 6-points behind until about the 5-minute mark, when Cass Lake started to pull away, ending in an 86-71 loss.

The Panthers, still undefeated, were led by Dominic Staples-Fairbanks with 28, Kingsly Whitebird with 21 and Kaydin Lee with 13.Ken Fox III led the Warriors with 18 points, Gerald Kingbird Jr. added 16 and Jack Brown hit 14.

We also talked about the 500th win of Bigfork Girls Basketball Coach Greg Powell, and of course, the Minnesota Vikings.
