Mesenberg is a big addition. I’m sure there are many more, but according to their twitter account Wayzata’s Adam Marshall and Tristan Sarsland will be at BSM.

Naturally. As mentioned in a previous post, watch out for Benilde over the next few years and possibly longer. SLP has some great youth players coming through and we know they are prime candidates to make the jump to BSM, and there’s no shortage of talent in the nearby communities.

MinnScout- if you were in Buffalo for 16s last week , was it news to you that 2 long established west metro names showed on the USA roster as uncommitted as far as their team for the upcoming season? Any insights you can share?

Also MinnScout- if you could clarify newly arriving Section 8 names ?

Is this confirmed? I heard rumors of this in the spring but a reputable source said he was staying at Cathedral. Things change over the summer so it’s very possible he’s changed his mind, just wondering when the last you heard of this was?

10 days ago I was told Tonka by a reputable source.

3 transfers to Tonka this year
Motzko
Kittelson
Streeter

This will definitely help their 2nd/3rd line forward depth, though I have to imagine there are some not so pleased players from their stellar jv team last year. Now the biggest question left is Brink.

On another note, it’s interesting that all three of those transfers are from private schools, and while I’m sure Motzkos moved into district, I guarantee none of the three will sit out for transferring. Loopholes.

Not a loophole if you change residences.

Off topic a little ,

So, MinnScout please divulge info about Section 8 talent joining the Red Knights?

I thought Streeter was a Wayzata kid? Did they move?

Who is Kittleson and where did he transfer in from?

AJ Kittelson is a rising senior from Holy Family. I believe he was a second line (maybe third?) forward there last year. Apparently he is from Minnetonka and grew up in their youth system. Kittelson was never all that productive at HF, so I’m not sure he will be an impact player at Tonka.

I do not know any that are going to BSM for sure.

The loophole is a financial hardship, to go from a private to a public. Easy out....sounds sad but true. Unless they move into or around the district.

Pretty sure Streeter lives in Deephaven, which uses Wazyata's postal code (55391) but is in Minnetonka's school district.

Griffin Streeter is from Tonka, he left to play at Shattuck and now is coming back to Tonka as a Junior.
There is another Streeter from Wayzata that will be 9th grader

Right. And it’s a pretty loose definition of “financial hardship.” A good rule for real situations, but a loophole to the abusers of it.

When two doctors claimed hardship to transfer son from Blake to Benilde, I knew all bets were off GB

GB -Special rules apply , as long as they stay in the West Metro
