2016 North Dakota HS Hockey

I caught the Red River/Central game on WDAY Xtra last night - wow, what a game.

It made me think back to how great some of these high school rivalries can be.  Packed barn at Purpur, highlight goals, great saves, and an OT winner to help the Riders stay unbeaten.

West Fargo has talent and Minot/Century/Bismarck are solid but you'd have to like the chances of these two squaring off in the EDC Title and State Championship on February 27th.

The State Tournament

Bismarck vs Davies

Central vs Century

 

Red River vs Dickinson

Minot vs West Fargo

 

Red River is still unbeaten.  How long has it been since a school went undefeated and won the championship.

After Central beats RR in the championship it won't be this year.  ;) Go GFC!!

I am torn. I have to root for the West teams as usual in Bismarck(alum) and Century, don't care about Minot and Dickinson but this year I have a cousin playing for Davies so I am pulling for whoever wins the Davies/Bismarck game to win it. I know, extreme longshot with Davies and slight upset for the Demons to bring it home.

Does anyone know if WDAY/Z Xtra is covering all QF games on TV Thursday?  Memory serves they did that last year.  

I think Minot will bounce back and that could make for a good SF game with RR.  Personally I think GFC got the better bracket.   Wish Grafton had made it; I always like watching them and their fans get behind the Class B town in a Class A tourney.

How else do you get four games in one day? Women's hockey at the REA this weekend also, and the reason Scheels Arena is going to be hosting this tournament a lot going forward.

I'm aware of the women's game. I was a coach when this happened 4-5 years ago. Dumb making kids play at 9 in the morning at their state tourney.

I'm pretty sure that Minnesota 9 man football title games used to start at 8 am. And North Dakota 9 man football title games start at 9.

No women's game Thursday so why the 10am start?  Noon start the past 40 years on Thursday...

If not practices, maybe for possibilities of OT. I'm sure there's a way to find out the reasons if one really wants to know.
