Park Christian vs. Fosston

A back and forth battle ended with the Fosston Greyhounds claiming the Pine to Prairie Conference Championship with a 46-42 victory over the Park Christian Falcons. The Falcons, the defending 2023 PTP Champions, started out fast with an early six-pont lead before the Greyhounds answered with a 12-0 run for their own six-point lead at 17-11. That was the largest seperation between the teams until the final minute with nine lead changes and 11 ties in the game. Eventually the Greyhounds would string together a couple makes in a row and get defensive stops on the other end to have a seven-pont lead in the final minute. The Falcons would steal the ball and take advantage of some missed free throws to hang on to hope and a one score game before the Greyhounds final free throws secured the PTP Championship for Fosston. Fosston improves to 24-1 overall while Park Christian drops to 21-3.
