Bottineau 28-22 - just ready to start the second half. They were up by I think 12 early, 14-2 ?? So Steele-Dawson has done a nice job getting in it. Roemmich hasn't scored yet and has sat with some foul trouble early. Steele-dawson is shooting 19%, but has 11 points from the line, so they are fortunate for the foul situation. I had Bottineau going away in this one, but unless Roemmich can score, this could stay close. And no way S-D will stay shooting under 20%, they will pick it up and they are scrappy. So this could be a better game than I thought.

S-D shot poorly in their last game, too.

Fun game to watch! I loved seeing the aggressive play and the fact that neither team backed down to the physical play. I really thought Bottineau would blow them away. I'm hoping Steele can pull out two games in the consolation round, they're too tough a ball team to be in the consolation round.

Eckroth had a rough game, I've seen her play much MUCH better!! Roemmich really kept her in check, plus she had some silly turnovers.

MINOT, N.D. - Kayla Roemmich scored the game-winning points with 10.7 seconds to play on Thursday, lifting defending champion Bottineau to a 49-47 win over Steele-Dawson in the first round of the North Dakota state Class B girls basketball tournament.

The Stars (23-2) will play Bowman County (24-1) in Friday's first semifinal. Bowman County beat Minnewaukan-Leeds 44-41 to reach the semis for the first time since 1992.

Roemmich, the Stars' leading scorer this season, didn't have a point until just 5:30 remained in the third quarter. She finished with 9 points, including the 3 biggest points of the game.

"I wasn't on in the first half. I had to step it up," Roemmich said. "At the end, we boxed out and got the ball back."

The Stars had 19 offensive rebounds, many leading to points in the second half.

Leading 47-46, Steele-Dawson turned the ball over in its own end with 18 seconds left.

Roemmich then scored on a driving layup, was fouled and made a free throw. The Pirates turned the ball over without a shot on their last possession.

Steele-Dawson (23-2) took its first lead with 1:57 to play on a basket by Bailey Benson, who led the Pirates with 13 points.

Maribeth Geiszler had 14 points and 12 rebounds for the Stars. Mandee Keplin had 11 points, all in the first half.

missed a lot of shots...especially right around the rim. she ended up running the point for part of the game when sand got into foul trouble...i thought she looked injured in the second quarter...maybe it was in the third. she went down on the floor kind of funny on a rebound and looked like she tweaked a knee or an ankle, but she played through it.

she seemed to be somewhat bothered by roehmmich early on, they seemed to eliminate the other one offensively.
