EP Lady Eagles Earn 3rd Seed in Section 6AAAA!

The Eden Prairie Lady Eagles varsity team overcame an 18 pt deficit last Friday evening to beat conference rival, Edina by a score of 52-44! This was the Lady Eagles final regular season game and placed them with a 4-4 conference record, and 17-9 overall.  Eden Prairie has earned the #3 Seed in Section 6AAAA and opens first round play vs. #6 Seed Minneapolis South, in a home game, Tuesday, March 3rd @ EPHS.  Tip-off is 7:00 p.m.  Come support your Lady Eagles!

Note:  Due to Minnesota High School League rules governing gate fees during sectional and state playoffs, EPGBA players will need to pay admission for all games.  EPGBA's special FREE admission program was for regular season home games only. The EP Lady Eagles players, coaches and parents appreciate all the support EPGBA in-house and travel players, coaches and families gave to the program this season!
