This semifinal appears to have a clear-cut favorite - but you never know.

East big. CR has decent top line. Could keep it close in 1st but DE has too much.

East only up 2-1 after 2. Coon Rapids scored first and led 1-0 after the first.

Who are these guys?!

While I am cheering for East it is nice to see CRapids doing well.

The current Juniors and top Sophs from Coon Rapids are the deepest group the high school has seen in quite a while. Most played PW AA and Bantam AA during youth (which doesn't sound like much if you're from a big program, but these guys have never had more than two teams at the different levels) and if they can hold together for another year, should surprise some teams next season.

With only three seniors on their roster, Coon Rapids is going to be a factor next year. They gave East a bit of a scare today. The Hounds are going to have to play much better than this to repeat their earlier victory over Andover.

Looking at the Coon Rapids roster for next year they should have a complete 2 lines that could give other teams problems. Talking to a CR parent 2 of their top 5 players did not play due to season ending injuries. Lee, your right Duluth East has to bring their "A" game against Andover. You hold their first line to minimal chances the Greyhounds come out on top. Good luck to the Greyhounds

Does Coon Rapids stay in 7AA when they re-align for next year? Losing Cloquet but adding Rock Ridge and Denfeld could move them out...I'll hang up and listen

Assuming they go back to 5AA
