So far the group as a whole is off to perhaps the worst start in Tourney Challenge history! Quickly going through it appears that everyone had #2 seed Delano advancing, and all but two picked #3 Mahtomedi over Northfield (it looks like only TheMNhockey1 and Browniemagoo got it right).

Does anyone remember another Class A tournament, in the modern 'seeding era', when in the first two quarterfinals both unseeded teams won?

Here are the standings after 3 days. I will double check everything before it's final tomorrow, but wanted to get the standings out before the games today, so I went through it quickly.

50in15 needs MAML to shock Hermantown, a Rapids win, and to sweep remaining bonus questions.

If it's Hermantown and Rapids then...
Browniemagoo, GoldenBear, Boblee, jeffpv, happyhockeyfan, grindiangrad-80 will be the front runners.

If it's Hermantown and Moorhead then...
bardown27, p3hebert, elliott70, and spudnik will battle it out.

Standings
50in15 - 48 points - Delano/Rapids
Browniemagoo - 47 points - Hermantown/Rapids

bardown27 - 43 points - Hermantown/Moorhead
karl(east) - 43 points - Hermantown/EP

Bobber does not count, he doesn't even live in MN.

EZ must have counted wrong - no way I scored as low as TT.

Interesting to see that Ben Meyers shifted to defense and Dylan Samberg transferred to Delano.
