Minnesota Top 25: The Star Tribune’s statewide, class-crossing ranking of boys basketball teams
Alexandria’s pain was felt throughout Hopkins High School’s gymnasium.
The Clemson commit left because of a right shoulder injury after a Raiders basket pulled them within 48-43 with 12:25 remaining. He returned two minutes later with the lead down to one at 50-49. Thompson made a difference defensively as the Cardinals scored six unanswered points, but writhed in pain every time he touched the ball on offense. He exited for good with 8:53 remaining.
Three days later, Alexandria dropped an 81-76 decision to No. 5 Sauk Rapids-Rice (3-0) without the services of Thompson.
Records through Wednesday, Dec. 11. Teams are Class 4A unless noted.
1. Cretin-Derham Hall (3-0). Last week’s ranking: No. 1
2. Hopkins (3-0). Last week: No. 3
3. Orono (Class 3A, 2-0). Last week: No. 7
