Help picking four state tourney games

Post by JJ »

I am in a pool and have everything pretty much decided except for four possible games.

Any opinions on these matchups or potential matchups would be appreciated.

First Round Class A-

Red Wing-Eveleth/Gilbert. Right now I am leaning RW but this seems to be a toss up. Neither played a particuarly difficult schedule. I had Chisago Lakes picked to come out of Section 7 but the way E-G came through has me wondering if I had them underrated. Thoughts?

First Round Class AA-

Hill Murray-Lakeville South. Right now I am leaning LS but Hill did beat them once and played a better schedule. Still, Hill only got through their section after WBL lost their second leading scorer for the season late in the year. I see this as another difficult game to pick and would love to hear thoughts.

Semifinals Class A (potential matchup)-

Breck-S.St. Paul. I had Blake pegged to come out of 5A. Breck's record isn't great but they played a much more difficult schedule than S.St. Paul. I am leaning Breck in this one but want to hear opinions.

Championship Class AA (potential matchup)-

Edina-Tonka. Tonka has to be the favorite with their only loss coming to Shattuck. But they also tied Edina once and won their other matchup by only a 1-0 score. This figures to be a close game. I have to lean Tonka right now but again would love to hear thoughts.

Thanks!!
