Two Red Lake County Rebels basketball players were champions in the 2020 Regional Knights of Columbus Free Throw Championship in Blackduck on Sunday March 1. Each of the boys won the local championship in January, the District championship in February, and have now won the Regional Championship. Ben Gullingsrud won the age 10 Regional by going into double overtime with a Bemidji 10 year old and Ben made 10 out of 10 free throws in the overtimes to win by 1 as the Bemidji boy made 9 out of 10.
Ethan Johnson won the age 11 Regional by making 19 out of 25 free throws and winning in a close match over some very strong competition.
Ben and Ethan will now compete at the State and International competition in St. Cloud on Saturday March 28.
Congratulations and good luck to both boys as they continue in the competition.
