#4 Elk River vs. Northfield - 5:30 PM
#1 Apple Valley vs. Blaine - 7:30 PM <--- MUST SEE

Friday 10/30 - Park Cottage Grove
#3 Jefferson vs. Wayzata - 5:30 PM
#2 Woodbury vs. Champlin Park - 7:30 PM <--- MUST SEE

Like I've pointed out earlier what the top four seeded teams fear the most is to meet either Champlin Park or Blaine. Luck of the draw got #1 AV meeting Blaine and #2 to play Champlin Park. It couldn't be any better challenges for the top two teams.

#3 Jefferson shouldn't have any problems with Wayzata and it's the same for #4 Elk River when they play Northfield. I would say Wayzata and Northfield are the weakest of the bunch. It would be a gigantic upset if they go through next round.

Predictions
Apple Valley 3-1 Blaine
Champlin Park 2-1 Woodbury

What do top 4 teams fear the most?
This is based on the playing style, coaching, and players peformance.

Champlin Park.
The Rebels playing flat-four defense which could net many offsides.
The make the field smaller and playing more physical.
Watch more speedy flanks and midfielders.
Professional coach.
BTW, EP needs Gavin to bring them to State.

Blaine.
The Bengals has strong defense and stymie midfield.
The attacking game plan is well organized.

AA Section Finals Update

AA Section Finals Update

Section 1AA Final - Lakeville North 1-2 Northfield
Section 2AA Final - Eden Prairie 0-2 Jefferson
Section 3AA Final - Apple Valley 4-0 Eagan
Section 4AA Final - Woodbury 1-0 OT White Bear Lake
Section 7AA Final - Blaine 1-0 Duluth East

Apple Valley 4-0 Eagan

I have two strong points that broke Eagan's game:

On defense: I guess Eagan didn't take my advice to play more physical to break up the flow. Eagan should double or even triple the fouls than what they have tonight.

On attacking: Eagan midfield forced the ball up too fast and given up possession too soon. They kept jamming the ball up front w/o much support from midfield. AV just booted right back to them.

I have two strong points why AV finally broke away:

On attacking: AV kept composure at midfield and dominate there to setup the plays with forwards. Basically the attacks are composed with midfielders and forwards which is very good for HS level.

On defense: AV is strong in the air and one-on-one. Many unnecessary booting but I guess they want the ball up front sooner. This could hurt them with good possession team.

Overall the possession is 65%-35% AV with plenty of scoring chances and good finishing. AV won it fair and square.

The only way to beat AV is in spot kicks.

Comparing AV this year vs last year, this year is much better at possession and more patient with the ball.

Minneapolis South vs. Robbinsdale Armstrong - 7PM at Armstrong
The last time they met, the Tigers came out ahead 1-0.

This will be a good game to watch with all the chips on the table this time.

Stillwater Area vs. White Bear Lake - 5M at White Bear Lake

This probably will come down to spot kicks.

Finishing 2nd behind the almighty Apple Valley.
The Wolfpack will have their hands full tonight.

Anoka 1-2 Duluth East

That's a big shocker for me. Anoka has been doing well and especially at defense department. Two goals are the max they've given in a game this year versus scoring 6:1 ratio (48 for and 8 against). Champion of the tough NWS conference with record of 8-0-1.

I don't want to take credits away from Duluth East, they've done a great job in stopping the Tornadoes attacking and blasted in two goals for the win is a great accomplishment. Congrats.

BTW, I wasn't at this game. What happened?

Woodbury vs Mpls SW

I've missed this good game between Woodbury and Mpls SW. However I don't agree with Mpls SW high ranking in Top 10.

Mpls SW schedule is limited with non-conf games and beating up on too many easy teams in their conference.

I don't see tougher competition in Suburban East and Mpls City than Lake and NW Suburban conferences. Their Top 10 ranking is too high IMO.

From history, Mplw SW do very well in their conf year-in and year-out and falls apart in section. You can say the same thing for Woodbury.

Final Score
Woodbury 1, Minneapolis Southwest 0

NW Suburban Conference Prediction - Top 4

NW Suburban Conference Prediction - Top 4

This conference is one tough one to predict.
The top 5 are the most even teams.
They can out do each others on a given day.

Centennial
Quick and fast attacking with strong defense.
There hasn't been much from this school for years but this could be their year.
Sept 17 game against Anoka should paint a better picture.

Anoka
Good feeder system from strong traveling Premier and Classic I teams.
Strong defense but lacks attacking punches.
Sept 17 game against Centennial should paint a better picture.

Champlin Park
Coulda and Shoulda team last few years but lacking cohesion.
Maybe some key players head are bigger than they are.

Coon Rapids and/or Osseo
Good success last year for these two teams.
They're trying to find some firm footing here.
I will say at least they're better than Maple Grove, Park Center, and Andover.

Lake Conference Prediction - Top 4

Lake Conference Prediction - Top 4

Apple Valley
This team has to be the most favorite to take the conference, section, and state titles this year.
Also David Rosenthal is looking strong to take Mr. Soccer title.
So this team could repeat what Osseo did last year with State Championship and Mr. Soccer.

Eagan
A well balanced team from defending to attacking.
Wildcats could give AV Eagles a run for their money.
Sept 26th game against AV should tell the story.

Eden Prairie
Strong defense and bulldog attacking style.
Looking strong to take #2 spot from Eagan.

Lakeville North
Playing good soccer possession game.
