The Minot Skyrockets will kick off a two game series with Albany tonight. The matchup will be the first this year betwen the two teams and the Skyrockets hold a slim half game lead over Albany in the division standings, but a 5 and a half point lead in quarter points. It was Albany who edged the Skyrockets by 2 quarter points last year for the divisional title so the Skyrockets would like to turn the tables tonight. Chris Daleo, Skyrockets coach: We just know we have to win. We have to stop Mama Casco on the post, he's a big NBA type player, 6'10. Strickland has his hands full with him so he has to be able to do a good job with that and the main thing is to win our ballgames. It was good to get a win against Yakama. We have to take care of our business against that and then we'll roll now, we have to continue to keep rolling, stay in first place and reach our goal of being in first place by the all-star break.  « Less
