Several of the top high school boys basketball teams from Wisconsin and Minnesota will be at Stevens Point Area Senior High School (SPASH) for the 2018 Wisconsin vs. Minnesota Border Battle Saturday, Jan. 27.

All-State senior guard Drew Blair is averaging 30.2 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game this season for the Stevens Point Area Senior High School (SPASH) boys basketball team, which will host Minnehaha (Minn.) in a matchup of State Champions from a year ago.

The 12th annual event will consist of seven games Saturday and include five teams that won State Titles last year, with each of the last four games featuring a reigning State Champion.

The SPASH and Pacelli Catholic High School boys basketball teams will both compete in the event, with Pacelli (8-4) taking on Spring Grove (Minn.) (7-4) at 11:30 a.m., and three-time defending WIAA Division 1 State Champion SPASH (8-4) facing Minnesota Class 2A defending State Champion Minnehaha Academy (Minn.) (10-2) in the final game of the day at 7:30 p.m.
