The task in front of them remains daunting, but regardless, the Pella girls basketball team will compete in a 4th consecutive regional finals matchup, this time against #2 in 4A Dallas Center-Grimes. The Dutch find themselves firmly in the underdog role against a Mustangs team they lost to by a combined 55 points in two conference matchups this winter season, and a school the visiting team hasn’t solved since 2019. DCG has appeared in the state tournament and topped 20 wins in every season since 2021. The Mustangs blitzed Webster City 66-24 on Saturday night, earning the mercy rule continuous clock for the entirety of the second half. Pella hasn’t appeared at the state girls basketball tournament since 2017, and a win tonight would give them an 11th appearance. Live coverage of Pella girls basketball in the regional final begins at 6:30 this evening on 92.1 KRLS.
