It's the end of an era. Lakeshore Weekly News, which over the past 20 years has covered prep sports for Minnetonka, Mound-Westonka, Orono and Wayzata, along with several other schools off and on (Armstrong, Hopkins, Blake, Prov. Acad.) will publish its last edition on April 30.
I have watched Wayzata and @marabraun10 lose two section 6AAAA championship games to Hopkins and @paigebueckers1 I can now say thank you to Paige for how you have pushed Mara and what you have done for MN girls basketball. https://t.co/VK3n1l3zJn

Top seed Hopkins comes from 13 down in 2nd half to beat Wayzata 66-56 in 1st 6AAAA semi. Kerwin Walton 30 pts, 18 in 2nd half. Carter Bjerke 15, Drew Berkland 13
Timeout with 2:29 remaining. Hopkins with the ball and an 80-73 lead. This has been an extremely well played game by both sides. It’s a shame one won’t be in Minneapolis next week.
Hopkins continues to lead thanks to contributions from players other than Paige Bueckers. Maya Nnaji was a big and-one to give Hopkins a 65-59 lead with 8:09 remaining.
Hopkins on a 9-0 run to take a 39-32 lead with 2:19 left in the first half. Trojans have missed a couple of fairly easy lay-ups in the last couple minutes. Can’t do that against Hopkins.
Hopkins has the lead back for the first time since early on. 25-23 Royals with 7:31 left in the first half. Braun and Stewart with 8 each for Wayzata. Bueckers with 11.
