Agreed. Lets see how many points he puts up on the prep team as a 16 year old, and then beyond. I think he's a kid that you could see in Dubuque next year as well if he keeps growing and adding mass, but the Wheat Kings are likely.
The K State QB is a good player. Had some first game issues, but he will make some plays against us.
I loved the way both coaches were attack mentality. The 4th and 3 at the end was a great call. Dale Lennon once said, "End the game on your terms." Nothing better than victory formation.
Head over heart.....
K-State 35
UND 17
I haven't heard them pulling in anyone from around the state like French used to do. I'm interested to see how Olsonawski and crew do this year, although most of the team was Shanley kids anyways.
I think its like you said. Central and Red River, and its the goal of every other team to make the all GF final not happen.
Looks like kids left Minot even without that second team.
This is what I've heard, can't confirm it all, rumor mill material here.
Sheyenne: Raan
WFHS: Peterson, Mattern.
Red River: Jackson
I heard Keller from Minot, but haven't heard other names.
Davies: Spiewak
Legacy-Strom
Figured I'd turn the page on last season and move forward to a new year with school getting going this week. On the North Dakota boy's side you've got a long list of early departures yet again, and some new coaches in West Fargo and Dickinson (haven't heard who will be the head man in Williston yet).
I'll give the nod to Central to win the championship in the boys. I'd assume North/South in the girls division, but it was nice to see a different winner last year.
People should really look up unfiltered audio of what is said between these young guys battling it out for 60 minutes. There is some great ones where they've got minor league players mic'd up.
When I coached high school I couldn't believe the stuff kids say back and forth.
I'd say getting called "nodiks" would be friendly banter with what else gets said.
