Here are my thoughts on who I think the seeding the top four teams in each Class for the state tournament should be.
Class AA
1. Edina | Edina defeated Eden Prairie, 4-3, during the season while Edina just defeated Bloomington Jefferson as Eden Prairie did. Edina's win was more decisive. Edina also crushed Blaine 8-4 in their only meeting during the year.
2. Eden Prairie | Only losses were to Edina and Bloomington Jefferson during the year.
3. Blaine | Blaine defeated Duluth East during the regular season 5-3 and both have identical records at 24-3-1.
4. Duluth East
Class A
1. Little Falls | The Flyers schedule was not the most difficult but it was not bad. Their undefeated season playing an average schedule should trump any other criteria.
2. Breck School | The Mustang's record has one less win, one more loss than St. Cloud Cathedral and Warroad but they played a tougher schedule.
3. St. Cloud Cathedral | The Crusaders defeated Warroad head-to-head, 4-2, with only a tie the difference in records.
4. Warroad
Mahtomedi's great win against St. Thomas Academy should not be enough to get them in the top four.
Virginia/MIB's 23-5-0 record is great but not better than the top four.
