has there ever been an 8th grader who had the kind of season this kid is having?? according to maxpreps he is the point leader.

Jordan Schroeder from St Thomas had around 50 pts as an 8th grader.

He is a great kid and has tremendous hockey sense. His upside is un-limited right now. very...very smart around the net. Is he going to BSM next year?

We can only hope he doesn't take the private school route.

I agree. It would be nice to see Hopkins hang on to their guys and build themselves into a consistent winner after being a doormat for so many years.

So says a Hopkins man!!

I just like seeing seeing exceptional talent come out of Minnesota's high schools. Hopkins needs him and BSM doesn't, so I'll agree that he should stay where he's needed. Besides, if he was going to go private, wouldn't Holy Angels be a better (if not a closer) choice? I don't know if the family would seriously consider it, but I'd be incredibly curious to know if he could make the Shattuck Prep roster as a true freshman!!

I agree....staying at Hopkins would be a good option than converting to the dark side

Is this kid a '93 or '94 birth year?

How about Peter Mueller's 8th grade year at Breck?

Yea, it would be a shame for him to get an education

Was he ever there? Did he get straight A's?

Zeke, are you implying that he will not get a proper education at hopkins high school?

wouldn't he have to sit out a year since he has participated in a high school sport at hopkins?

You should probably get the facts correct. He would have to sit out due to the fact he is participating in an MSHSL sanctioned season. The fact he is not actually taking HS classes has no effect due to him being on a roster. Atleast that is what I was told by the MSHSL before this season...

You were told incorrectly. Being in a 8th grade Hopkins middle school requires him to play for Hopkins senior high team. He can still enroll anywhere he wants in the ninth grade, without incurring the transfer penalty.

I will have to make another call as this could have helped our football team this past fall. Is this one the MSHSL page anywhere so that I can attempt to get further explanation as to why we missed out on a good WR?

He is a 93. I heard that he hated Hopkins Bantam so much, for a reason I don't know that he planned to not play Bantams, even if he didn't make varsity.

Then, he was probably going to go to Minnetonka. He still may, as his mom is the one of the athletic trainers there, however it seems much more likely he stays at Hopkins than goes anywhere as of now.

wasnt Travis there WHOLE team last year for PeeWee A's?

No, he was their best player but they had 2 other kids who were studs.

They also had 2 outstanding goalies.

Yea Tanner Holmquist and a guy named Austin Bizal a first year.

That's the biggest misconception in the world of high school, that private schools offer a much better education than publics. I've gone to both-the public school was as strong or stronger than the private school in terms of academics.

So this kid went from peewees to high school varsity? Thats pretty amazing! I figured he would have played at least a year of bantams.

is there any conformation that he will be coming to benilde next year?
