St. Paul boys basketball is on good terms with the No. 11.
After starting the season 1-4, the Falcons are 11-6. That’s the first 11.
The second 11 is the number of years in a row that St. Paul has made the state tournament.
And here’s a third 11: the Falcons have also won double-digit games in each of the past 11 seasons.
Along that 11-year journey, there have been four trips to the final 16 of the state tournament. There’s also been three runs to the final eight and one to the final four.
The years change, and so do the players in the program, but what doesn’t change is the consistency of the St. Paul boys basketball program.
