OK, so make a liar out of me. The Becker girls beat Hopkins 63-54 at Hopkins last night. Hopkins, #4 in AAAA, led throughout until Becker tied the game at 51....
How good is Henry this year? I was told Totino-Grace had beaten Henry (is that true?), and last night St. Louis Park beat Totino-Grace by 17, having led by as...

I am shocked at how well these kids are doing, as a whole. I mean, who really thought that Nolen and Hoffarber would be contributing like they are so soon, or...
Thanks. I did not have a chance to see most of these kids play HS ball (the few I did see were on videotape from the State Tournament) but as a group they...
Janning is a shooter. Ditto Hoffarber. I mean, both are good athletes, but would not be playing if they could not shoot. The big step up from high school to...

Didn't Michigan lose to Harvard earlier this year? They also lost to Central Michigan at home, as I recall, a team the Gophers handled easliy. That might...
As if Leuer and Stommes weren't shocking enough, I discovered that I had missed a game earlier this season where freshman Zack Filzen (Northfield/Northern...
