As usual a fairly boring, lopsided day 1. The top 3 are clearly better than the rest of the field. Orono/PH should be a good game tomorrow.

I felt bad for the Luverne goalie giving up that icing goal, glad it wasn't a one goal game.

I think they are pretty straight forward but every year I seem to be surprised by something. Class AA 1 Andover 2 Edina 3 Minnetonka 4 Maple Grove 5 Gentry 6-8 Brainerd/Little Falls, Burnsville, Northfield 4/5 is a coin flip, and I could see a case being made for Burnsville being the 5 seed. If Burn...

Not a huge surprise I guess. I thought Burgen might not make the cut as her team struggled, not that it was her fault. I would put Tuttle ahead of Enright.

Too snarky - sorry. Probably better to read this as a strong statement by Malecha about the Ms. Goalie award. I didn't see the game, but based on the box score, I'd say you are correct that this was far more about Malecha than South. I still put South in the area of 5-10 in the rankings. They could...

I haven't seen Tonka or Gentry live this year. What issues do you see? Tonka loses their goalie who is likely to be a finalist for Goalie of the year. (I know this because of the great research done on this site) Not sure what their back up situation is. Gentry will certainly get some kids to move ...

Rumor has it Apple Valley and Burnsville are merging next year. If true that would be a team that should flirt with the top 10. Apple Valley returns almost their entire young roster (losing 12 combined points) and add in the few returning pieces for Burnsville, they should be the heavy favorites in ...

Goalies never get the love. Kidding, appreciate your skater stats, they are fun to look at.

Lavendar actually had a tougher schedule than Johnson, at least in terms of games against top 20 teams. Fairly similar stats:

Semi-finalists have been announced: Maggie Malecha - Northfield Kenzie Cole - Grand Rapids Annika Lavender - Wayzata Jori Jones - Roseville Carley Tuman - Woodbury Angie Lombardi - Eastview Hannah Fritz - CDH Abby Pajari - Proctor/Hermantown Kendra Nordick - Warroad Sophia Johnson - Minnetonka Leah ...

Northfield beat Owatonna 4-1

The list just came out:

Allie Franco
Claire Enright
Dani Burgen
Emma Peschel
Whitney Tuttle
Madison Kaiser
Iyla Ryskamp
Sloane Matthews
Vivian Jungels
Maddy Christian

Gotta think Jungels is the heavy favorite.

Has anyone seen 8AA seeds? MSHSL doesn't have it posted, but LSQRANK has the seeds in his latest rankings thread. Are these official?

1 Moorhead
2 Alexandria
3 Brainerd/Little Falls
4 Roseau
5 St Cloud
6 Sartell/Sauk Rapids
7 Buffalo
8 Bemidji

I hope Holy Family wins that first round game.

I bet they would put up a better fight than Prior Lake.

Post them if you see them, I believe most/all meetings are today. 1AA 1 Lakeville South 2 Northfield 3 Farmington 4 Lakeville North 5 Dodge County 6 Owatonna 7 Rochester Mayo 8 Rochester Century 2AA 1 Minnetonka 2 Holy Family 3 Shakopee 4 Eden Prairie 5 Chaska/Chanhassen 6 Jefferson 7 Prior Lake 8 N...

4AA 1 Gentry Academy 2 Stillwater 3 Hill-Murray 4 Roseville 5 East Ridge 6 Woodbury 7 White Bear Lake 8 Mahtomedi Not sure why I had East Ridge and Roseville flipped, Roseville won head-to-head. 8AA 1 Moorhead 2 Alexandria 3 Brainerd 4 St Cloud 5 Roseau 6 Sartell 7 Buffalo 8 Bemidji Brainerd win ov...

Only a few games left, I don't see many of them factoring into the final seedings. 1AA 1 Lakeville South 2 Northfield 3 Lakeville North 4 Farmington 5 Dodge County 6 Owatonna 7 Rochester Mayo 8 Rochester Century 5/6 is a coin flip, Dodge beat Owatonna 2AA 1 Minnetonka 2 Holy Family 3 Eden Prairie 4 ...

Meh! National, State, and Local, mandates are killing officials. After 20+ years as an MSHSL official I am done. The whole thing has become a political battleground. We are short officials but yet are charged ~ 20% by the MSHSL and our local associations to officiate. Jason Nickelby should be held ...

The problem these days are some parents are crazy and there's nothing the association can do about it. If a parent is yelling at the refs, the association can tell that parent they are not allowed to be in the arena for x games or x days. That parent says "F you, I'm watching my kid play."...

Mound Westonka 2A --> 2AA
Holy Angels 5A --> 6AA

Revisiting this thread, wonder how/why these two ended up back in class A after initially being placed in AA? Maybe Holy Angels wanted to opt up, then changed their mind when saw they were in 6AA? Holy Angels boys are in AA.

I wasn't necessarily saying South is the 4th best team in the state, I was saying they would be competitive with that next bunch of teams after the top 3. You can't punish a team for having a weaker schedule, but it's not like they're playing cupcakes every night either. The South Suburban has some ...

Burnsville with a healthy Bowlby showing they are better than what people may have thought, and/or Lakeville South belongs nowhere near the top of a rankings list. (and Rosemount with a 12-5 win over Apple Valley - what is happening in that bizarre south metro...? Defense anyone? Highly suspicious ...
