Snowflake did not qualify for the 1A-3A Open Division Tournament, finishing outside the top 16 in the final overall rankings.
They did finish 12th in the final 3A rankings and will host No. 23 San Tan Foothills in a 3A State Pool game on Friday night, with tip-off set for 7 p.m. If they win that game they will await Saturday’s bracket show to see where they fit into the 3A state bracket, which begins first-round play on Feb. 18, at sites of the high seeds.
The Lobos won their final two regular season games played last week. On Tuesday, they downed Show Low 57-28, then Wednesday’s game at Blue Ridge was a 56-27 win. With those two wins the Lobos claimed the east region crown. They finished in a tie with Holbrook, and Winslow, but claimed the tiebreaker as the higher-ranked team in the final rankings. The Lobos finished 12th, the Roadrunners 13th, and the Bulldogs were 18th. with all three having identical 7-3 region records.
Snowflake is currently 16-9 on the season.
