Redwood Valley vs. Pipestone Area
7 p.m., Friday, Sept. 29

Redwood Valley and Pipestone are tied atop the South Central White subdistrict standings, and Friday's matchup will determine which team stays there.

The outcome may manifest itself in the postseason, where both teams compete in Class 2A, Section 3.

The No. 5-2A Arrows (4-0, 3-0) are off to a strong start, bounding back from a 4-6 campaign a season ago.

Pipestone Area finished as the runner-up in the Class 2A state tournament two years ago, and the No. 8-2A Cardinals (4-0, 3-0) could be in for another state berth after opening the season 4-0 for the second consecutive year.

The teams split their last eight meetings dating back to 2011. Redwood Valley won twice in 2016; Pipestone took two matchups in 2015.
