IMO, after PR beats a re-energized TRF team this will push TRF and Burrmidji to the 4-5 game...the lesser of 2 evils gets bounced by da Skirt wearers in the semi's...

That leaves EGF and da Panthers to rekindle their playoff rivalry and see if they can give Warroad even half of a challenge....either team would need a supreme effort in nets for that to happen...

That's another possibility.
Big games on the horizon.

The next three games for TRF are huge...Warroad, EGF, and PR. If they can win two that will set them up to end up at least number 3 come seedings time. If they can split with EGF and Bemidji, get swept by Warroad and beat everyone else they should end up 3, maybe 2.

Seeding projections, after it's said and done:

1. Warroad - They will go undefeated in section play.
2. East Grand Forks - Beat Bemidji already, will split with TRF.
3. Thief River Falls - I project them to lose only 2 more section games. That win against Moorhead is huge (common opponent).
4. Park Rapids - Will lose to TRF, but beat EGF.
5. Bemidji - Won't win another section game all year.
6. Crookston - Just a little better than LOW.
7. Lake of the Woods - Almost beat IFalls, but it won't matter.
8. Kittson Central - Beat RLF bad.
9. Red Lake Falls - Lost to KC.
10. Bagley - Winless but better than Walker i'm sure.
11. Walker - Also winless, first year.

Strong possibility of it coming out this way, but lots of possible scenarios with these ** teams.

Looking at the 4 - 2 to 5 teams

Bemidji curretnly 7 W & 8 L
realistic - optimistic could be 14 & 11
Section 3-2 as of today W over LOW, TRF, Crookston
lost to EGF Warroad
important games with TRF, Warroad & DL (common opponent)**

TRF currently 6W & 8L
possible could be 14W & 11L
Section 2-2 WHallock, Crookston Lost to Bemidji, Warroad
important games with Warroad, EGF (2), Park Rapids, RLF, Crookston, LOW, Bemidji, DL**
notable win over Moorhead

EGF current 5-8-1
possible 13-11-1
Section 3W - 2L beat Bemidji, LOW, Crookston lost to Park Rapids, Warroad
important games
RLF, TRF (2), Hallock, Warroad, DL**, Crookston

Park Rapids impressive 16 W - 0 losses (easier schedule but has not lost, success breeds success)
possible 23 - 1
Section 5-0 wins over Walker, EGF, Bagley, Hallock, RLF
important games
LOW, TRF, DL**, RLF, Hallock and Mora (decent team and last game for possible undefeated season)

Lots of action still.

Yes, I know. But the way TRF is playing right now, I think they can steal a top 3 seed. But the only way that can happen is if they beat PR and Bemidji and then to get a 2 seed, probably have to sweep EGF.

Seedings right now:
1. Warroad - Undefeated in section
2. Park Rapids - Undefeated overall
3. E.G.F. - beat Bemidji
4. Bemidji - Beat T.R.F.
5. T.R.F. - Not beaten any of the top 4
6-11. The rest should be the same.

The thing going against Bemidji is they are almost out of section games. So, if they lose to TRF (who they have already beaten) then they are at best a 4 seed (unless they beat Warroad). If PR goes undefeated in section play they will be #2.

Park Rapids... With that tough schedule this year, I think they will be playoff ready. :roll:
