I believe the winner of tomorrow night's BIG clash between Westonka and Orono will get the #1 seed in section 2A, with tomorrow's loser getting the #2 seed. That makes it pretty straight forward for the first two seeds. I believe #3 and #4 will likely be Delano and Minneapolis. Who gets that nod? Wh...

I'm not sure if Southwest Christian / Richfield will be playing in sections yet. I don't think they did last year. If so, they will just seed 8 teams, have three rounds, and go at it. As others stated, there will be some interesting quarter final games, let alone semis and final.

Section 2A

Section 2A has long been ruled by Breck. Delano and Orono have taken their turns pushing Breck aside on occasion, and this year Breck has struggled. It has been said many times that this section is deep with contenders, and 2A has generally fared well when playing opponents from other sections. It a...

Mankato East seems to be capable of good play. However, for each impressive outing there seems to be a bad game to match it, on their list of completed games. It is comparably hard to score on them so that will keep them in a lot of games. They seem to be challenged to score goals so that will keep ...

Any reports on Orono’s 2-1 win over Mound-Westonka? The box score sure makes it look like an even game throughout, with Orono popping the winning goal with just under a minute left. That pretty much describes it. Not sure how it could have been any more even. Shots were dead even. Chances were even...

Technically, yes, it is "Mound Westonka/Watertown-Mayer" but for what it is worth there is not one single player on Westonka's JV or Varsity roster that hails from Watertown or Mayer. In most years, there are a couple. Not this season.

Lost to Eagan 4-0; beat St Paul Johnson 3-1; play Hopkins at 3:00 today. I watched Luverne's 3-6 loss to Chanhassen on Saturday. Chanhassen is AA but would likely struggle against most top A teams. Luverne's struggles with teams outside of the SW MN Section 3 territory this season (especially Hopki...

I'm assuming the poll for this thread is actually looking for a vote on the Tuesday game between Westonka and Orono? Section 2A is a grind. A couple current front runners and several more capable of getting hot at playoff time. Section semis or even quarter finals will feel more like some section fi...
