|
|
12/8: Bemidji at Moorhead
Could very well determine the top seed in 8AA. Repeat on 2/11 in Bemidji.
12/8: Maple Grove at Blaine
An early season matchup between 5AA's top two teams. The rematch happens on 1/26 in Maple Grove.
12/26: Hill-Murray vs. Minnetonka
This Schwann's Cup game pits the Pioneers against one of 6AA's best.
1/7: Lakeville North vs. Lakeville South
North blew up South's state tournament aspirations the past two seasons. Justin Kloos and South will be favored here...again. Rematch on 2/9, and very possibly in the 1AA finals.
1/12: Benilde-St. Margaret's at Minnetonka
Two 6AA heavyweights slug it out, both teams considered among the five best AA teams in the state this season.
1/12: Duluth East at Grand Rapids
Revenge motive runs strong in Grand Rapids; this game will likely determine the top seed in 7AA.
1/12: Roseau vs. Warroad
No seeding implications here; they're in different classes. But this is still the best rivalry in the state and not to be missed. Round Two happens on 1/31.
1/14: Duluth East at Eden Prairie
A rematch of last season's Class AA state championship game.
1/21: St. Thomas Academy at Breck
A preview of the Class A state championship game? Could well be.
1/31: Eagan at Hill-Murray
Seeding implications at the state tournament here, assuming both teams get to the state tournament. Both teams should.
2/17: Hibbing at Hermantown
A final Friday battle between two Class A teams considered by many the best in northern Minnesota. _________________ Message Board arsonist since 2005

| Some of the best teams in the state squaring off head to head always produce many great games, also many section implications and possible section final games there too, cant wait for the season to start! |

regardless of how good either teams will be this year. Edina vs Holy Angels has been consistently a great game for the last couple year especially the last three. I would expect the same this year. _________________ The best, period |

Glad you added the preface because neither will be real good this year. Edina, maybe top 10. Holy Angels, maybe top 20. |
