If they call it the "AA ABRA AUTO Crash" instead they will get the first listing in the yellow pages

Sounds like a great tournament. I hope the Kapsoia can become the elite class A or the secondary class AA tourney for tradition's sake.

My first thought, after 'Wow, is that going to be fun!' was what will happen to our beloved Kaposia.

I think everyone would love to see some of the stronger non-metro 1A teams such as Alex, Crookston, Warroad, Austin, etc., come in to play some of the stronger metro area 1A's such as Farmington, New Prague, Blake, Breck and the hosts. Of course there's still the Schwans Cup too. It will be interesting to see if the Kaposia can keep it's shine somehow.

I think making Kaposia THE tournament for all A teams to aspire to would be great. They do the best job by far in running a tournament.

I bet there are some unhappy people who run the Schwan's Cup. As I recall they were talking about expanding it for next year but having so many of the top AA teams at Edina is sure to take some of the luster off for Schwan's.
