Moorhead will be a top 10 team for years to come. I do think Roseau has a chance to give them a test again this year, but time will tell. We need a coach hired first!

This late in the summer will the new coach be from the broader community, rather than the school district?

Any buzz on the Roseau front? Seems odd and a little concerning that there have been crickets so far. Still posted on Roseau's web site, along with a part-time activities director. May make it easier to put a package together. As a teacher in the district, Roseau could assign Lundbohm to the positi...

Where is Coach Aus headed?

I am a one class kind of guy but even I have to admit it's time for a 3rd class Recruiting is only going to get worse...Families are cutting deals in AAA hockey. Coaches are so smug today they don't even hide or deny the fact that they are recruiting. Parents are shopping their kids constantly and ...

Probably a good time in the East timeline for Mike to step down. He and the Hounds have had a nearly 3 decade long run of being one of the top teams in the State. It will be interesting to see where the program goes under a new regime. Every one of us is replaceable. Mike did a great job, and left ...

David Prokop hired at Osseo.

Good for Osseo. Good for David.

Any chance Aus surfaces in Roseau? The Brainerd Dispatch makes it sound like he wants to keep coaching.

Wow, that's a surprise.

The reason?

Junior parents

That’s a real shame. Coach was a class act from the beginning.

Brainerd now open

Heard the parents were behind this one and were trying to run him out of town.

Not much grey area with this coach. Either you love him, or you don't.

How much does compensation weigh in to these departures? Yes, I know some are performance based issues and others are tired of the stress and placating everybody. But when you look at other states, and their h.s. premier sports, coaches are compensated 10-30 times what the standard rate is in Minnes...

With GA and EP winning last night, Joe Cullen and Jackson Blake both achieved state titles, something their fathers fell short of. Could that lift the hex that appears to have been on the Spuds program?

Maybe Roseau.

Sounds like maybe a re-seeding should be in order. Hard to imagine Hermantown JV being a #1 Seed.

1A: Dodge County
2A: Breck
3A: Hutchinson/LDC
4A: Gentry Academy
5A: Monticello
6A: Little Falls
7A: Hermantown
8A: Warroad

OK, then why not have just one class for all other sports like basketball, football, baseball, swimming & diving etc? fair question. What is the justification for having 5 or 6 classes in HS Boys football? You are right. The direct comparison with other sports fails. If hockey want to keep up, then...

I understand your viewpoint, but the current two-class system needs to be "re-calibrated" so the upper or perennially more successful teams are all in the upper-division.

Or could we re-calibrate back to one class?

per QRF 2-24-21 1 Maple Grove (12-0) 104.3 2 Lakeville South (10-0) 99.6 3 Eden Prairie (10-1) 99.5 4 Grand Rapids (7-1) 93.6 5 Cretin-Derham Hall (10-1) 92.2 6 Andover (11-1) 92.1 7 Benilde-St. Margaret's (11-1) 90.2 8 Prior Lake (10-1-1) 85.0 9 Hill-Murray (10-2) 84.4 10 Gentry Academy (10-0) 83....

Thank you for sharing this with the board E70. Dick was a good man with a heart for hockey. Never in it for himself, he worked behind the scenes of many projects that will benefit youth for generations to come.

I hope I am wrong on this, but I do not see how the pause ends on 12/18. Nor do I. I expect another case surge after Thanksgiving with deaths surging (again) just before Christmas. It looks bleak. Lee If it is true that we're going to start seeing a vaccine on December 11 (what the CDC stated this ...

Duluthguy:

Thanks for the note. You used the term "youth" sports. Does youth include HS?

Yes, the demarcation appears to be between Pro/College and "youth sports."

As of Tonight Marshall MN Faribault MN Chisago Lakes MN Bloomington MN Duluth MN Northfield MN St. Peter MN Rochester MN Winona MN All have suspended activities for the winter to start and will not start Hockey on time keep adding them as you hear them. In fairness, you could probably list all scho...

Do you mind divulging your source? At least what industry/agency he/she works in? Will ice arenas be shut down? It would have to go to another level for ice arenas to be shut down; but the trend is not positive. I believe we could see rinks shuttered from Thanksgiving through January if we don't fl...

WOM and Hunter win. My inside source says all schools will be shut down in a week or two. Walz will also shut down bars and restaurants. Your local YMCA and gyms closed also. Sad deal Do you mind divulging your source? At least what industry/agency he/she works in? Will ice arenas be shut down? It ...

Yes,they are a low risk group. Sadly, when they leave the rink they interact with many who are not in a low risk group, parents, grandparents, neighbors, etc. Many of the populations have tried to slow the spread by wearing a mask and social distancing, but we've had others disregard any type of sc...

Thanks for the update, Director. Glad to have your leadership with MH.
