Wayzata Girls Basketball Set for Seventh Straight Section 6AAAA Final with Hopkins
For a seventh straight season, it will be Wayzata vs. Hopkins girls basketball in the Section 6AAAA final with the winner advancing the state tournament.
The Royals have won the previous six meetings, but for the first time in the past seven seasons the Trojans will host this year’s 6AAAA final.
Wayzata won both regular season match-ups against Hopkins, defeating the Royals on the road by three and winning at home by six.
In the second meeting, the Trojans’ leading scorer Sophie Hawkinson went down with a season-ending injury.
That was the second season-ending injury the Trojans have been dealt this year with Kate Amelotte also out for the year after she suffered a leg injury in the soccer season.
Despite the injuries, the Trojans rallied together and won their first Lake Conference title in 42 years.
Thursday’s Section 6AAAA final is scheduled for 7:00 PM at Wayzata High School.
