Kelsey (Hennen) Buysse has been there — so has sister Samantha ... and sister Molly ... and brother Kyle.
Congratulations to the Girls Basketball team for their big Section 3A Championship win!
The game was unsettled. Minneota was leading by just two points and a trip to the Section 3A finals hung in the balance.
Logan Sussner was watched tightly by Jarod Goepferich (left) and Kailen French of Lakeview.
But Minneota won, 53-51.
Isaac Hennen split the defense, with Jarod Goepferich on the left and Kaelin French on the right for Lakeview.
Hennen scored 18 points in the Vikings 53-51 last-second win over Lakeview.
