How will Austin fare aganist Breck

[State Champ 97]

Not well

[pondhockey]

Having seen both teams play, I'm going with Breck by a couple of goals. Good luck to both teams.

[hocktang]

Yes Breck will probably win but Austin is a strong team.

Austin has 2 prolific scorers so they should Breck some competition. If Breck can shut down those two girls, they will win handily.

Breck 6-1

Austin will find out what it is like to play a real big city team. I have seen both play and it will be no match. This will tell if TJ is the real deal. I hope she does well.

Austin played the Big City team Breck last year. Maybe you were busy???? Austin plays the Big City teams from Rochester every year....Rochester is now the third largest city in the state...and growing bigger every day.... I could care less if they lose by 50-0. Austin girls have class and heart and that's all that matters. TJ is the real deal..always has been. BUT it takes team to win....

7-1 breck after 1
I meant to pick a final not a period score. Ouch, lets hope they can come back and make it a game.

12 - 1 Breck after two!!!!

Run time!

[mnhcky23]

This game was out of hand to say the least. Did Breck even take a shot in the third period? Didn't want to run it up too much...

It's really too bad Class A does't have 8 STRONG teams down at the X...

Breck took no shots in the 3rd period after they built their 12-1 lead in the 2nd - pretty classy not to run the score up any more.

8 quality teams. thats pretty harsh. i know the girls on this team they played there hearts out. eight teams from the state made it... the best eight thats why its called state ya prick..

Thank you Southland....Breck has the best team money can buy in the Twin Cities..TRUE???? They should move to AA to show how good money can buy a championship at that level, too.

Sorry but Austin is not one of the best eight teams in the state. They were the best from their section.

They do the best with what they have...sorry that you find a need to put them down. They have overcome tremendous obstacles that you have no idea about. If heart counts they are indeed one of the top eight.

[Southland_rebels]

there playing for third tommorow thats pretty bad. i believe breck is a private school.. wait a minute.. cant they recruit.. austin plays tough every game so what if they lost. i cant believe someone would say a team playin for third isn't one of the best

[State Champ 97]

I didn't mean to put them down. They have had a good season and one game won't diminish that. My point was that If they played in section 8A for example, they wouldn't have made it out of the semi-finals of the section. Only my opinion from what I saw. Warroad and Crookston could beat them.

[Southland_rebels]

maybe not but i am proud of these girls.. i think they have repressented our section well

[State Champ 97]

You should be proud of them. They showed a lot of class and character today in a tough situation. Congrats on a good season and best of luck.

Not everyone at Breck has tons of money! If money bought championships, then Breck would have won every year! Hard work, effort, and skill is the key to championships.

Recruiting is against the rules! And besides... public schools can ALSO recruit.

You don’t have to have money to go to Breck, That is why they have Anonymous donors to help you.

It still doesn't mean it buys championships.

[winnings not 4 everyone]

It's semi-final games like this that hurt the legitamacy of the girls state (particularly 1a) tournament. These are NOT the best 8 teams in the state. Each team in this tournament took, essentially, a different route to get to the X. Take a look a the scores in 2A. Pretty evenly matched. Take a look at 1A, there were certainly lopsided games. Sections will not be realligned, a third class will not be added, and TV will not cover opening round games as long as this continues. Good luck Alex!

The way the road to the State tourney is set up it virtually GUARANTEES that you won't see the best 8 teams in either division. It's common in other sports at the High School level too. For example, golf. In 2006 the 5 out of the top 10 teams in the year end poll were in section 8AA. Only one team goes to state. There were teams from other sections at state that only had 1 player break 100. That's the system and it won't change.
