I will be interested to see South's girls play. One would think they may have at least one college prospect given their dominance this year. Also interested to see the Kielpinski kid for Mandan's boys and Hanstad for Dickinson.

I like Williston on the boys side and Mandan on the girls.

I agree I think South's girls ae gonna be hard to beat, but you can never count out Mandan considering they have have been in 12 of the last 13 state championship games. Ali Collins for Mandan is D-1 material and im sure fargo south has some to considering there whole starting lineup was on the all east region team. For the Boys I agree Joe Hanstad is crazy good and only a sophmore, I think he will go to a big D-1 School considering he already had offers from NDSU and UND I think after his freshman year. He is averaging 27.0PPG thats ridiculous. But Mandans Boys are really good and Willistons Quavle is a monster might be Mr. Football and Mr.. Basketball. Should be some interesting basketbal this weekend.

Anybody been following the Class B? Koeber from Dakota Prairie has been impressive. How high of a "next level" (college) can he play at?
