The Pirates faced a familiar opponent in the Class 4A quarterfinals Tuesday morning at the Target Center. For the second year in a row, Park Center was matched up with fellow Northwest Suburban Conference opponent Andover. It was also their second meeting this season.

In the previous matchup on Feb. 21, the Pirates led by only two points at the end of the first half as they tried to weather the storm of a hostile Huskies crowd. Eventually, they held on for a 97-91 win.
