1AA Championship Lakeville North vs. Lakeville South

[Rickidy Cricket]

They would have 8 starting sophomores and 1 freshman if they had one school still. Crazy good young talent in that community

[keepyourheadup]

Don't forget the ST Lakeville contingent as well, Crandall, Reid, Schroeder, Kroska Mckneely and Graveline are all lakeville kids as well.

[danglingnsnipen15]

regardless of the players they lost or how good they could be if they had one school, South still has the firepower to do some damage in the tournament if they make it

[curtiscurve]

Part of me wants to see North win and get Jefferson in the quarters. That way it can be talked about that whole day about how the dog sh** section 1 representative was undefeated vs the mighty Jefferson this year. All the complaining about how poor section 1 is and how great section 2 and 6 are just makes me want to see 6 and 2 face off in the consolation championship over at the U on Sat morning. That would hopefully shut some people up.

It would, too bad it will only happen in your dreams. Does this mean when the section 1 representative loses at state and sections 2 and 6 meet in the final you'll shut up then? Not 1 team in section 1 is even ranked in the top 20, why can't you just accept the section sucks and doesn't deserve to be playing anymore?

While I do wish they'd do something small to make 1AA a little stronger, let's give Lakeville South some credit. I didn't rank them 16th in my last set of rankings out of charity. Their regular season achievements are just as good as, if not better than, the teams that will come out of sections 8 and 3; maybe section 4 if Hill gets upset.

There is a legit team in 1AA this year. Only one, but one nonetheless. It's a shame they aren't getting much recognition for that.

Thanks for the quality post East. More people need to get over themselves and realize that Section 1AA will have a quality team in the tourney in South and if North upsets, they will have a team that has proven they can skate with the top schools (just ask Jefferson).

Thank you Curtis! I'm tired of guys like Roseauoverated bashing South and North when they've probably never even seen either of them play!

lets look at lakeville south
played ep twice lost 8-4 and 5-2 not exactly close games
lost to eagan twice
lost to jefferson twice 9-3 and 8-2
got shut out by breck 6-0

best win of season over burnsville 2nd game in the season and then lost to them 6-3 later on


so 1 good win this season for south against competition

Like I've said before, Souths only flaw is their goaltending. They werent necessarily outplayed in all of these games. Against eagan, who was a top 10 team, they only lost by one and outplayed them IMO. And you didnt mention some of their games such as a 7-2 win over Cretin. I'm not arguing that South is a top ten team, I'm only trying to say that they have the talent to surprise some people, assuming they win on friday.

[auld_skool]

If North plays like they did both times against Jefferson, I don't think South has a chance.

So, Apple Valley, CDH, Hopkins, and Blake were not good wins? IF I am not wrong, AV and Blake are in their section finals. Hopkins tied Edina, lost to Wayzata in OT and gave Benilde a run in their Quarters. CDH is a 19 win team losing to Woodbury 2-1 in the semis. I really feel bad for you Das that your team was bumped in the quarters, but your jealousy of Section 1AA teams is just pathetic.

And your defending of the 1AA teams is pathetic. Sure LS may be decent, but the rest of the section is absolutely terrible. The Minnetonka JV team could probably make it to the section final. All I'm saying is it shouldn't be ridiculously easy for some teams to win their section while other teams actually have to prove themselves worthy. Distribute the talented teams across all sections.

If you really believe that, then your thoughts regarding anything hockey related should be disregarded now and forever. That may just be the most idiotic statement outside of anything Lakeviewing posts. By the way, how many points did you record on that Minnetonka JV team this year? Do yourself a favor, start a thread entitled "Section 6AA and 2AA; How great are we?" and spew all your garbage thoughts about how great you are and how everyone else should bow down. That way you and Lakeviewing can stroke each others ego and feel good about yourselves. Stay out of the other threads and just ENJOY hockey and let others enjoy it as well.

You act like the winner of this section should just say "gee we really dont deserve to be at the X this year, maybe we should just roll over and forfeit?" Give me a break, both of the Lakeville teams are worthy of possibly pulling off an upset this year. Dont bash the teams, because they deserve to be there and have worked hard for it. If you're going to get mad, take it out on the MSHSL. Nobody wants to read you constantly whining about how section 1 is a joke and shouldnt be represented at the tourney. Its worthless and you're just making yourself look pathetic and immature for ripping on kids for something they have no control over.

[Roseauverrated]

For the record, I don't play for Minnetonka, nor am I even from there. And it really is not that implausible to think Tonka's JV could make it to the final, the teams in 1AA are that bad. I think it's way more of an idiotic statement to say the section 1AA champion will play in the state final, like some people here are saying, than to say Tonka's JV could make the 1AA final. I can agree with you on the idiocy of Lakeviewing's posts though.

Everyone bow down to DasCondor!

tonka also beat hopkins 11-1 so not sure thats a great win by lakeville s
and tonkas jv team could easily match up with most of 1aa


if south / north wins against a good team at state il eat my words but until then 1aa is a joke

How can you say that the section 1 representative is not worthy when you've never even seen either of the lakeville teams play, let alone be able to make a judgement about either of them

Believe it or not, you can judge a team based on their scores from the 25+ games they've played this season. How do you think Karl and most other people do their rankings? Do they go to every game? Looking at the results, Lakeville South looks like a decent team, could get passed the first round in state if they get a lucky draw, all the other teams in 1AA are terrible and wouldn't stand a chance.

[keepyourheadup]

Seems odd that in the midst of all this pounding 1aa is taking nobody has mentioned the similarities to 3aa. Woodbury has been inconsistent and has a similar record to souths, apple valley is 1-1 with south and finished behind them in conference play. Is the difference that great? I'll agree that both lakeville schools are fortunate to be where they are but can't we just get over it allready.

So what is it from the 25+ game JV schedule that Minnetonka plays tells you that they would reach the 1AA finals? Where does Karl have tonka's JV team ranked? Your statement regarding the Tonka JV team ruins your credibility. Now take your ball and go home..... You have proven your stupidity enough, we get it!

[Roseauverrated]

The Minnetonka JV comment was based mostly on the terrible record most teams in 1AA have against other bad teams in the state. It was more of an estimate based on the strength of the Tonka varsity team that their JV team would be able to compete with the low end of the varsity teams in the state. It certainly is possible they could make it to the final of 1AA, not saying they would win it. It isn't nearly as absurd of a statement as some I've heard on here.

Regardless, this argument clearly isn't going anywhere so why don't we just agree to disagree and let the games play out.

my team is still in it why are you defending this poor section soo much? The teams in 1aa and 3aa section finals should be soo happy right now. They would all have been elimated by now in section 2aa and 6aa

Agreed! After Tonka's JV team plays any of the section 1AA teams, why don't you come back to the 1AA threads and we can discuss.

Phenomenal post Pioneer. You have successfully associated yourself with 3 other half wits on this board. Pioneer meet Lakeviewing, dascondor and Roseauoverrated. You should all be proud of yourselves.
