Freeman Public Schools Superintendent Jake Tietje, left, and Freeman Academy Head of School Brad Anderson visit prior to Tuesday night's Region 4B game between the Flyers and the Freeman Academy/Marion Bearcats. It was a friendly but competitive environment inside Sterling Hall as the Bearcats fended off the Flyers in what was a scrappy, physical and often ugly affair. FA/Marion's 42-35 win pairs the Bearcats with Irene-Wakonda Friday night in Centerville, with the winner advancing to the SoDak 16.

Freeman senior Erin Uecker defends Centerville's Thea Gust in what was an entertaining Region 4B battle between the No. 3 Flyers and No. 2 Tornadoes in Irene Saturday night. The two teams went back and forth in the first half to give fans a thrilling brand of basketball, and Uecker and the Flyers held a 34-30 lead early in the third quarter. But a shooting exhibition from multiple girls from Centerville followed, and the Tornadoes began pulling away.

As expected, another winter storm dumped more snow across the already snow-soaked region on Wednesday and early Thursday morning, bringing with it high winds and very cold temperatures. The Freeman community was on the southern side of the system and received a lesser amount of snow than others — one measurement showed just under 8 inches in town — but the blowing snow made conditions very poor.

This is the bracket for the Region 4B Girls Basketball Tournament set to begin tonight, with No. 8 Freeman Academy/Marion hosting No. 9 Gayville-Volin in Marion starting at 6 p.m. The Bearcats lost to the Raiders 44-38 during the regular season. Region 4B action is scheduled to continue Tuesday night at two locations — Centerville and Viborg-Hurley — and it appears the games will be able to be played ahead of the incoming storm (although the start time has been moved up). Freeman Public will face Alcester-Hudson at 4 p.m. in Centerville, followed by Menno and Centerville.
