Jimmies Ready for Important Conference Weekend


Jamestown College takes to the court on Thursday and Sunday of this week to play conference opponents Minot State and #14 Dickinson State. The Jimmies have an opportunity to stay in the thick of the conference race and also give them some breathing room if they can find a way to win two games. Both games will come down to limiting mistakes and execution on both ends of the court. Minot State has a very strong inside game along with some veterans in the backcourt while Dickinson brings one of the top posts in the conference in Kia Herbel along with some speed on the perimeter.

The Jimmies look to improve on their game from last weekend and take another step forward. The Jimmies will need all of their players to step up their scoring and defensive intensity. The Jimmies backcourt of Ali Edwards, Amanda Rantapaa, and Kellie Schuneman (Pictured) will continue to adjust on the go without Katie O'Neill who is recovering from season ending knee surgery.
