The next installment in the Top 20 regardless of class is now up on the Hub...go ahead and check 'er out.

Unlike many, I still have Eden Prairie hanging onto first by a thread over a pretty impressive Minnetonka team.

Hey! Thanks for giving my Eagles some love! Wait until they get to catch up to Tonka's game total before dubbing the Skippers the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I like it. If EP was #1 to begin they have done nothing to lose that they won 6-0. Glad to see you kept them there even though Tonka has shown early they are very tough.

Don't know who the better team is (EP vs Tonka - until they play off) but FTP has some pretty good logic to their rankings and pointed out a few facts I was not aware of other than the senior departures.

The Jags are right up there with Tonka and E.P. To think otherwise would be a mistake.

Agreed. Those three teams were an easy trio to have at the top of the rankings and I think have separated themselves thus far. I also think Breck and St. Thomas Academy will do the same thing in Class A, which makes that game my pick for the top game this week.

The Week Ahead will be up on the Hub shortly.

The Jags are good too, but I think EP and Tonka get compared so much if because they are both in 6AA.

From the metro, you got two other strong teams (Hill & Benilde) facing off against each other tonight. That should be a great game. Both have fire power, Benilde has one of the best goalies in the state.

In the end, goaltending & team D win championships.

Exactly why I think the Eagles will repeat at state. Goaltending and team D.

Exactly why you could say Tonka will win too

They are both great teams, better than Benilde. Obviously I'm gonna be a homer and root for EP but like I said, both are great teams.
