The regular season is in the books. Now comes the playoffs.
Former Coupeville High School basketball player Monica Vidoni and her Rainy River Community College women’s basketball squad will play in the Region 13B tourney next weekend.
The Voyageurs finished the regular season at 15-10 overall, 9-5 in Minnesota College Athletic Conference play.
They tied with Mesabi Range and Itasca for second place, but will be seeded fourth in the postseason.
That puts them up against top seed Northland, which is ranked third in the country, in a loser-out game Saturday, Feb. 27 in Thief River Falls, Minnesota.
Pull off the upset and they play the winner of Mesabi and Itasca Feb. 28 for a berth in the NJCAA national tournament in New York Mar. 12-14.
During her freshman season Vidoni, who is also playing volleyball and softball at the college, saw action in 19 games.
She’s scored 16 points, snatched 24 rebounds, rejected three shots and pilfered two steals while racking up 118 minutes of floor time.
During her time at CHS Vidoni was a three-sport athlete and was on the Wolf softball team which went to state in 2014.
