The most recent win for Regina in an already impressive winning streak is the best win yet for the surging Regals.

Regina pushed its winning streak to an even dozen on Saturday with a 58-55 win over Class 2A third-ranked and previously unbeaten Monticello at the River Valley Conference Shootout at Maquoketa High School.

Eddie Petersen hit the game-winning 3-pointer as time expired as Regina improved to 12-2 on the season with its 12^th consecutive win.

The loss snapped an 11-game winning streak for Monticello (11-1) to start the season and stopped a 15-game regular season winning streak for the Panthers that stretched back to January 24 of 2023.
