The Red Lake Warriors took a 3-0 lead five seconds into the game and never looked back as they are headed to the State Tournament for the second time in three years.

Gerika Kingbird got the opening tap and got fouled scoring on a layup just five seconds into the game to get the Warriors off and rolling. Kingbird made the free throw to finish the three-point play and Red Lake led 3-0.

The Storm would take a 4-3 lead but that would turn out to be their only lead of the game. Red Lake went on a 13-0 run to take a 16-4 lead.

The Warriors had four players in double figures and were led by Kelanna McClain with 17 points. McClain added 8 rebounds and 8 steals as the Warriors improved to 21-7 overall.

The Warriors had lost to Stephen-Argyle 50-42 on December 14th at the Northland Holiday Tournament in Thief River Falls and had lost to the Storm in last years Section 8A Championship Game 56-49.

Freshman Riley Mooney led the Storm with 22 points as Stephen-Argyle ended their season at 27-2 with their other loss coming against Crookston. Mooney and Abi McGlynn combined to score 42 of the Storm's 59 points. Greta Weberg made a shot from half court just before halftime to cut the Red Lake lead to seven at halftime.
