Duluth Marshall @ Warroad 1-25-08

[theref]

As far as preview of a state final, never assume it's going to be a cake walk.

Want to show me where I stated it would be a cake walk?

Of the games left this year, Warroad/Marshall is probably the most likely game that we'd see over again. It's NOT saying that they will win their sections outright and cakewalk into St. Paul. But this matchup was on-par with what will be going down at State. Marshall/STA is another. I-Falls being at the top of A now, but they won't be playing anyone that will be making it to state the rest of the year until playoffs, where Marshall/I-Falls will in most likelyhood meet to determine who goes. And I-Falls is not to be discounted either. The Warroad/PR potential matchup is the one everyone's looking at as the final game in 8-A. Fact is thou, at state anything can happen. If they both play strong until then, there's no reason why they can't be in the final match of the year, albet I'm sure other teams will have plenty to say about that.

That's interesting. The Falls plays Roseau before the end of the season (an almost lock to make it to state) and Grand Rapids and Hibbing. Depending on how things shake out, anyone of those teams could go to state.

Wow! Fantastic win for the Warriors!!!

marshall overrated this year, they will get bumped off in play offs

if overrated means that they are better than everyone thought they were then you would be correct, but since you are going by the actual definition of overrated, you are 100% wrong. i seem to remember them beating #1 overall ranked st. thomas in running time, is that good? marshall beats good teams in AA as well and are definately a top competitor, they will show it in march.
