They took a 79-70 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Roosevelt Teddies.

Peterson has been hot, having posted two or more steals the last five times he's played. Another player making a difference was Steven Hunter, who went 5 of 10 on his way to 15 points and five assists.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Minneapolis South will host Twin Cities Academy/Great River at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Roosevelt, they will look to defend their home court on Monday against Camden at 7:00 p.m. Camden knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 14 matches -- so hopefully Roosevelt likes a good challenge.
