I remember the name from when they played Duluth East in the 1994 AA quarterfinals. Didn't know he was still coaching.

The big question (for me, at least) is where Mike Randolph will land. I don't believe he's done coaching yet.

It was my understanding that Ranheim was not retained.

Oh. They didn't do well over his tenure, but with the exception of 1 or 2, he didn't have a lot to work with either IMO.

They were in the section final and lost in OT a year ago.
