Stage set for classic basketball finals in Okotoks

The 4A South Central zone basketball champions will be an Okotoks high school — which one will be decided tonight.

The 4A South Central zone senior basketball champions will be an Okotoks high school — which one will be decided tonight.

The Foothills Falcons girls downed the Chestermere Lakers 85-36 in a zone three-team round-robin game on March 11 at Holy Trinity Academy.

As a result they will face the HTA Knights in the zone final tonight at HTA at 5:30 p.m.

The winner will advance to the 4A provincial championships in Lethbridge March 19-21.

A similar scenario has played out in the boys tournament. The Falcons got by the Lakers 96-50 on March 11 at HTA.. They will take on the HTA Knights at 7:15 p.m. to decide the zone champion at HTA.

However, because both teams are highly ranked in the 4A boys provincial rankings — the Falcons are 13th and HTA, 10th —  both teams will advance to the provincials in Lethbridge.

4A is for schools with an enrolment of more than 800 students — the highest division in the province.
