Commentary

The Elks looked very good this past weekend, probably a tie at number 1 between EP and ER right now, EP just won the most recent game at EP on 12/15. Lakeville South has established itself as a firm number 3 team, winning some nice games this weekend. STMA has played really well lately, too.

10. Crow River 3

Commentary

 A lot of hot teams at this level.  Still no one better than Tartan.  Mankato gets tied by Northfield, that knocks them down a few.  Highland Central wins Lake Superior Classic and vaults into Top 10.

Bantam B

Rank Team District
1. Hudson 2

8. Lakeville North 8
9. Armstrong/Cooper 3
10. Johnson/Como 8

Commentary

The Bantam B level is crazy this year. White Bear gets tied by Park Cottage Grove, Eastview beats Lakeville North handily and then Johnson Como beats Eastview. Go figure this level.  Usually by Christmas the the top 10-15 teams establish themselves. This year there looks to be up to 30 teams who still have a shot at some glory this year.

Lots of action the past couple weeks at PWAA. The northern teams really showing some signs of strength. The Brainerd Warriors really looking strong the last few weeks and Wayzata has found a new stride since Thanksgiving, too.

Not a lot of movement at the top (Hudson, Wayzata and both Edina's stay strong). Rochester (Red) and Eagan (Blue) move in.  We will see how long they can stay.

Commentary

Volatile week in SQA. Eden Prairie goes up a lot with nice run through their home tourney. Chaska Chan moves up after an impressive win over White Bear Lake. Bears stay firm at number 2. OMG the consensus "Best Team in the State" at any level...beating opponents with ease every time out. Jefferson moves in to the 10 slot with a tie with CC and win over Edina White.

Commentary

The trifecta is complete. Osseo Maple Grove sweeps the top three spots in SQB. Each has a loss and all are to OMG teams. The rest have been wins over other teams from all over MN.  Coon Rapids seems to be a hot team as is Eden Prairie Red, congrats to them on winning an exciting Championship Game on Sunday.
