I'll give this one a shot:
14UA American
NE Metro vs. Tonka
NE Metro is on a roll coming off a sweep of the Woodbury Tournament and then winning the D2 Districts.
Tonka finished 2nd in D6 playoffs, both losses to Edina Green.
NE Metro wins this one by one goal in a low scoring game.
Blaine vs. Chaska-Chan
Blaine won their D10 League and their Playoff, been a top 3 ranked team most of the year - good team, sounds like if their 14U age elig players don't make Varisity, then the play 14U vs. JV? I like that if that is true (see 14U vs. JV thread)
Chaska-Chan coming in as 3 seed out of D6, had to win the play-in game, usually a good squad.
Blaine wins this one by a few goals
Edina Green vs. Anoka
Edina Green - enough said...It's Edina Green and everyone else battling for the other spots.
Anoka draws the short stick on the bracket -- good skating team, can play physical when needed, good girls program and will compete for that 3rd spot.
Edina Green - I know...out on a limb right -- wonder if Anoka can keep it under 5 goal difference.
Elk River vs. Stillwater Black
Elks coming in out of D10, 2 good goalies and a couple of very dangerous players
Stillwater Black coming in as the 2 seed out of D2, good skating team, goaltending and Defense will determine how they do (like most teams)
Both teams evenly matched, one goal game goes in favor of the Ponies
After all is said and done the 3 teams moving on are:
Edina Green
NE Metro
Blaine
