Minnesota Girls High School Hockey III

Re: Minnesota Girls High School Hockey III

Maybe Blake was motivated to avenge the 12-3 beatdown that Warroad put on Blake earlier in the year when Cameranesi was playing for team USA.

Warroad players heading to Whiouxville got a first hand look at how speed kills. :D
 
Re: Minnesota Girls High School Hockey III

Blake goalie did a nice job keeping Warroad from getting back into the game. Stopping a 2 on 0 and other close-in shots.
 
Re: Minnesota Girls High School Hockey III

Congratulations to Minnetonka for beating Hill-Murray 3-1 to become the first three-peat girls state champions. So much for possibly being too tired.
 
=brookyone;5639864]Sometimes there's a knock on teams outside the TC metro when looking at player stats and team records...due to questions about the competition level within their conference etc. This Red Wing team
looks to have a genuinely talented squad that may buck that notion.

No in this case stats do lie. Playing an easy schedule makes this team appear to have talent but any of those top scorers can't add up any points against top ranked teams. It should be evident as they always make state but never go to the finals.

I don't agree with that. In the Red Wing game versus Blake, I thought one team was just much deeper than the other, and in the latter stages of the game, the deeper team pulled away. Red Wing didn't lose that game for wont of offensive chances. At the H.S. level, Schammel can definitely play.

Just a seat of the pants observation of mine that Red Wing was indeed a stronger, more talented team than often has been falsely indicated for various teams in the past...due to weaker / conference competition. Consistently making the state tournament but subsequently never making a final doesn't really convince me a team is without talent. Much like the competition at the college level, they may suffer breezing through a regular season and section not being severely tested or challenged on a regular basis. My theory. ;)

Well, in the interest of looking after my girls at Bowdoin, any insight into Maddy Hall or Aliya Faroe who both play for the Blake School in the great state of Minnesota. They are both slated to attend Bowdoin and join the Polar Bears next year. Thanks!

Congratulations to all of the invitees, but I have to ask: what the heck has happened to girls hockey in Northern Minnesota? Only one player north of the Twin Cities was chosen, that being Demi Gardner from Warroad on the 16's. Meanwhile, six girls from Southern Minnesota made it - Red Wing and Dodge County with two each and New Ulm and Mankato with one each. Ten years ago I never would have predicted such a turnaround.

Gone fishing? :confused: It is a surprising development or turn of events...a little puzzling.
 
Re: Minnesota Girls High School Hockey III

I think programs that Winny Brodt has helped set up Prospects, OS, Elite HS League has really given girls in the metro and close to the metro a real advantage in development. Jenny Potter and the FHIT programs are also a big advantage. Izzy Marvin has done a great job in Warroad and N MN with development and summer teams but with his daughter's now graduating someone will need to step up.

I can think of someone...at least maybe when / if she has more time and the desire.
