36-Orono (5th in A)
49-Breck (8th)
51-Mound (9th)

The winner from here will be a viable contender for the Class A championship.

1-Edina
9-Cretin
20-Wayzata (lost to Blake at home this week)
33-St. Louis Park
39-Benilde
41-Blake

**Can anyone catch clear favorites in 3AA, 4AA, 5AA?
3-St. Thomas...next is 12-Eastview
5-White Bear Lake...next are 22-Stillwater & 26-Hill-Murray
8-Centennial...24-Blaine

**Most Top 15 teams are in 7AA

21-Brainerd
27-St. Cloud

**No slouch
17-Greenway
28-Hermantown
38-Virginia

**Best section final?

35-Sartell

This will be interesting to re-evaluate after the tournaments this week. Already is! 2A is a mess. Could be any of those teams at the X in March, especially given Minneapolis’s strong showings of late.

I think it looks incredibly exciting.

2A is already shaping up to (again) be the section of death, but could you imagine if Blake had not opted up? As is, you probably just take the semifinalists from 2A, throw in Maht, EGF, Cathedral, and the 7A champ and end up with a great state tournament field.
