The Review
At the Top – Eden Prairie was even better than expected. They came into the season as our preseason number two – I had them at #1 most of the summer but thought they would have trouble with some bigs when Bland left for prep school so I moved them to #2 – but it was quickly realized they were a clear number one. And they stayed there never losing a game.
The Surprise – The only surprise to me was Wayzata struggling in the non-league schedule so badly that they went 11-17. BUT most would be surprised to know that the Trojans were 7-5 in the Lake Conference giving them clear ownership over 3rd place out of seven teams.
What Happened? – Buffalo was a bit better than expected despite losing Aiden Bauman and Tony Dahl Tony Dahl 6'3" | SF Buffalo | 2020 State MN from the senior class. That is about the only thing that was a real talking point outside of Wayzata.
