Friendly reminder:

It is not necessary to pick the scores the semifinal and championship games; you only need to pick the winners. The scores of these contests will not enter into the final point scoring here. You must, however, show your scores in all of the quarterfinal games, both 1A and 2A.

For those of us with a horse in the race, who by the very nature of it must become less than objective, it probably does put us at a bit of a disadvantage, eh?

Of course that DOES depend on which side of the fence you're on!

Thanks again and good luck to everyone!

First Class A score is in:

Alexandria 5, South St. Paul 2

There were no correct scores, and all but 3 people pick up a point. Four of us had Alexandria winning 4-2, but their empty net goal at the end spoiled it for us!

No big surprises yet as both of the favorites won their quarterfinal matchups this afternoon. In the 2nd game it was:

Roseau 4, New Prague 1

Most pick up another point, but several picked the Roseau score correctly and take the early lead:

Cardfan - 4 points
boblee - 4
bensonmum - 4
17 are tied with 2 each

Austin 5
Marshall 0

Final

Final:

Breck 3, Hibbing/Chisholm 1

Cardfan and boblee each had very good days, with each getting the scores of the Roseau and Breck wins correct AND going 2 for 2 in the other games. A great start for each!

bensonmum is close behind with 6 points after getting one score right and picking the other 3 winners. There are 13 tied for 4th with 4 points each, as it was a day that didn't feature any huge upsets.

Here are the point totals for the leaders through today's Class A quarterfinal action:

1. Cardfan- 8
1. boblee- 8
3. bensonmum- 6
4. MNHockeyFan- 4
4. GOCARDS1- 4
4. hockrun- 4
4. pipersniper12- 4
4. finance_gal- 4
4. allhoc11- 4
4. hockeyrube7- 4
4. State Champ 97- 4
4. DmanDad1980- 4
4. hockeyheaven- 4
4. RoseauWarrior- 4
4. EatSleepHockey44- 4
4. chickendance- 4

The other 10 scores go from +2 all the way down to -4 (tough start!).

Best of luck to everyone tomorrow!

MNHockeyFan - don't forget me, I had 5 points getting Breck game score, and 2 of other 3 winners. In my book at home I'm giving myself 1/2 point for calling an EN goal in Alex game, and getting Roseau's 4 goals correct. Those will go in my notebook right beside all the Floor Hockey goals and and assists I had in middle school(way back in the day).

allhoc11, please accept my apologies for somehow missing your entry! I have added you to the spreadsheet and you are definitely in. That makes 26 total contestants.

You do however have 4 total points since you missed one game (Marshall-Austin) that counts as a negative 1, so you have 4 total points, not 5 (1+1-1+3 = 4).

I am editing the post above to correct the final stats and standings. Again, sorry for the omission.

P.S. Regarding your half points, I'd be doing a lot better too if that were in the rules. I didn't get any scores correct, but in 3 out of the 4 games I was only off by 1 for one of the teams, including when I missed the score in the Alex game when they got the empty netter in the final seconds.
