The NRHEG boys’ basketball team made school history Friday night, becoming the first team in the history of the program to win a section title.

Benji Lundberg made two free throws in the final minute and the Panthers held off Jordan 65-64 in an electrifying Section 2AA championship game at Minnesota State-Mankato.

Tyler Raimann led the Panthers in scoring with 17 points, followed by Lundberg with 14, Oakley Baker 11, Sam Prigge 10, Brady Agrimson six and Jason Jongbloedt five.

The Panthers, 28-2 and seeded second in Sub-Section South 2AA, will play in the state tournament Wednesday, March 23 at Target Center or Williams Arena.

Jordan, the No. 1 seed in Sub-Section North 2AA, finished 25-4.
