It's hard to say..because a lot of elite players are doing other things, I think a portion of them will be Varsity players, and some of the teams going in are a collection of upper level players that go in on an independent team...at least that's how it was last year.

If it was all returning varsity players, then it sure would be a good tournament Huh?

Yes it would. Does the MSHSL still have restrictions on how many players from one school can play together on a team during the summer?

Hmmm I never heard of that?
I'm sure one of our experts on here will give us the low down

You can tell I'm an oldster. They had those restritions when I was is HS

What were the results of this tournament?

1st-Minnetonka
2nd-Duluth Denfield
3rd-Armstrong
4th-Maple Grove

Those are the top 4. Minnetonka blew everyone out of the water.

They tossed out those restrictions a few years back. Now, a coach can work with his entire team I think for a six-week period until the end of July, but the practices cannot be mandatory.

Anybody know the scores from the Bison tournament?

Also, how many games is Buffalo playing this summer? It looks like they're in every tournament listed on here!
