The Section 2 Class 3A boys basketball playoffs begin Tuesday at the high seeds and the Faribault Falcons are home against Mankato West. It's the No. 4 versus No. 5 seed.

Traditionally, Section 2 has started after Section 1, but that is obviously not the case this year. They have really spread out the games.

The winners collide Saturday at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter and the section title game is March 3 in St. Peter.

The state boys basketball tournament begins March 9.

The section did not even wait to seed until the final games of the regular season were played Friday, so Faribault's loss to Northfield did not factor into their seed.

No. 1 is Marshall, and they host New Ulm on Tuesday night. No. 2 Mankato East has No. 7 Worthington visit them Tuesday night. No. 3 Waseca hosts No. 6 Hutchinson.

If Faribault wins Tuesday they play at 6:00PM Saturday at Gustavus.

The Falcons swept Mankato West during the regular season, winning in Mankato 62-48 and at home 51-49.

Faribault finished the regular season 13-13 and Mankato West was 10-16.
