The 5AA Rundown
There are so many good players and teams here, but also change. Holy Family has three division one level talents in Hanson, Kapke, and Mulholland, the last of which is one of the hottest senior names in the state as a handful of D1 teams have been in to see Collin this fall. The Fire are good, but they have a new head coach (although Joe Burger was there before, and he coached Hanson before, and he is a good coach). Minneapolis North lost a lot of seniors but they have more talent back than people know. That said, the program is going through a complete leadership change. Watertown-Mayer has just everything back, but can they make the big push? Breck also has a new coach, who has a lot of talent, but it’s a team that wasn’t very good last year. Blake also had a nice mix, but a lot of it will be young. Hiawatha Collegiate should be solid but after watching them in the playoffs vs WM last year I feel like they would need to take a big step. Rockford is usually solid but the injury to Henry Skinner Henry Skinner 6'2" | PG Rockford | 2023 State MN was a back breaker. Edison should be good, but they did have a tougher season than expected last year. Lots of talent in this section overall, should be fun.
