It was another very successful season for the Owatonna Boys Basketball team. They finished the year 20-8 overall and claimed second place in the Big 9 with a 16-6 record. They eventually lost in the section semi-finals to Lakeville North who went on to claim 3rd place at state the following week. Individually Blake Burmeister and Collin Vick were selected Big 9 All Conference as well as Academic All State and Ayden Walter was selected as an Honorable Mention All Big 9 player as well. Blake Burmeister set two school records during the season...most points in a game with 44 and in the same game set the record for most 3's made in a game with 11! Congrats Blake! Collin Vick will be continuing his playing career at UW-Stout next season and fellow senior Jason Klecker will be competing at RCTC for the Yellow Jackets.
It was a fantastic year for Owatonna Boys Basketball. The Huskies claimed their first Big 9 title since the 2010-2011 season and went undefeated with a perfect 22-0 record in conference. In section play they defeated Rochester Mayo in the quarterfinals, Lakeville North in the semi's, and upset the top seed Farmington in the championship to claim back to back section titles. At the state tournament Owatonna fell in the opening round by one point to Cretin Derham Hall, beat Moorhead in the consolation bracket, and finished the season with a tough loss against Andover. Owatonna finished the season with a 28-4 record overall (most wins in school history) and final state ranking of #6.
Numerous team and individual records were broken and set over the course of the season. To see the records that were set...click on the PDF above. Everything that was achieved was a testament to the time, effort, and work the kids have put in over the course of their careers.
As we turn our sights to the 2022-2023 season we are looking forward to getting back on the court with our basketball family in pursuit of challenging to be one of the top teams in the Big 9 and Section 1AAAA once again!
