Huskies to host Seward in district final

Aurora's game on Saturday against Seward is fairly simple: win and advance to the state tournament or lose and a trip to Lincoln is out of the question. 

Aurora will play Seward Saturday in a boys district final matchup. Tipoff for that game is set for 3 p.m. The Huskies are seeded fifth in Class B while the Bluejays are 12th. 

Aurora defeated Seward 58-45 earlier this year. In that game, Aurora built a solid lead in the first half and held a steady double-digit lead in the second half. Henry Penner led the Huskies with 22 points while Baylor Scheierman added 12 and Ian Boerkircher pitched in 11.
