Back in the day, there was the "back door" rule where if you lost in Region 7 finals you could go to Region 8, win there and still get to state.
That's how Greenway won their 1968 title.

I think that’s how Rapids made their first trip in ‘72.
Re: It's tourney time!
It started where region 7 runner up would go one year and then region 8 the next then changed it to a playoff.
It ended in 75msybe.

Most of the people working in the concession stands are volunteers, working for their kid's college tuition, summer band trip, youth athletic fees, etc. I know one guy who made enough to buy his Scout troop a trailer.SEC Scotty wrote: ↑Fri Mar 06, 2026 12:19 pmPopcorn and a coke $18

They make a fortune on Maui Wowies. Never had one. I'm a malt guy and now Snuffies is gone too.

Talked to a man who is a St.Paul Johnson alum last night. He said only 3 players played for the co-op this year from that area of the East Side.
Edina's cheerleaders were booed last night by upper level students who also started the F Edina chant in the 3rd period. Pretty bush league.
