I would imagine Anders Lee is pretty happy he went back to Edina, regardless of whether or not St. Thomas wins another state title in class A. His football success was beyond anything I've ever seen and he playing with the guys he grew up with.
And he went to a school with girls.

The guys he grew up with? The guys from St. Francis where he was until he was a squirt or the guys from Edina where he played 2 or 3 years or the guys from STA where he played a few years? He grew up with a lot of guys.
When exactly did Anders Lee move from St Francis?

Let's see - if he played until he was a Squirt in St. Francis, do the math!
My guess is 4th grade!!

One Walter Chapman, winner of Two State titles as the coach of Breck and one title as a player at Edina under Ikola would be my guess. Great coach and classy guy.

Giles is a fine coach. It isn't a matter of Giles' coaching ability, it is a case of too much emphasis on individual performance/stats versus pulling together as a team both at the player level as well as the parent level.

I don't think that he would get the job this year, because his kid will be a senior next year. John Donnelly is also a good candidate, but I don't think Giles will be going anywhere so I don't think it will matter.

I guess I don't know about when he moved from St. Francis (I did not know he lived in St. Francis). What I do know is that Anders played Squirts in Edina.
