OMG is on the Brink of being really good again this year.

Commentary

Prior Lake wins the Blue Ox, their first Ox title in six tries. Great all around team. Edina beats Shattuck on Saturday, that combined with a strong showing in Chicago puts them at number two to start the year. Those are two very, very brief points of data - it looks like there may be a revolving door this year in AA. Chaska Chan, OMG, Wayzata and undefeated (in Minnesota) Champlin Park all might stake the #1 spot this year. Don't sleep on the north, once those team shut down the deer stands and playing hockey, one or two teams will emerge.
