Eastern Iowa power eyes state title dreams
The forecast leans on two Eastern Iowa squads LaSalle and Iowa City to stun the state crowd during a five day 24 game boys basketball tourney. LaSalle is tipped to topple unbeaten Forest City and Cherokee en route to a first state title while Iowa City is set to meet Des Moines Lincoln in a top AAA final. Springville could win class A as Davenport West and Kennedy face early exits with Lincoln and Beckman also in the mix.
