Neutron must be smiling down from Limbo or Purgatory today with the Fleet of Fives being represented by the Cretins from Highland Park in the 2024 State Tournament Meanwhile, all the top teams in each and every section were upset and are watching this year Even Grand Rapids, the outlier from the outstate, knows it upset a higher rated team despite whatever Biden-like shenanigans were played in that backdoor section keeping the metro teams from the top seed this year |

Yes, all the top teams are out:
Minnetonka District Border Skipping Skippers? Watching from districts from whence they came
What, Where, Why, Who-zata? Home asking how do they ever make it past Edina
Andover? Over
Rape L Grove? Cancelled
STAtheist Hellhounds? Second guessing their DuLutheran conversion
Poor witto Roseau, Moorhea_ and the Lakevilles? Meh
Hill-Murray true rightful CHAMPIONEERS? getting a head start on next year's title

Cretin made it to state this year only after poaching the Cahill kid from Hill's JV team! Ankles Pierre, Jr. may even pull for CDH this year, since it will be so much like pulling for Hill's JV |

Yes, this is setting up to be the JV of all JV State Tourneys!
Odds are that the Edina Cake-Cheaters will have a Cake Walk through this JV-like field,
but could JV teams Cretin and Grand Rapids meet again in the final like the 2006 JV-like title game?
We've had section upsets in years past, but it has never been every section like this 2024 JV-like field.
Previous years' biggest section upsets of note:
2012 4AA St. Paul Johnson over White Bear Lake
2011 4AA White Bear Lake over Hill-Murray
2009 4AA St. Paul Johnson over Tartan
2007 5AA Burnsville over Holy Angels
'94-96 4AA White Bear Lake over Hill-Murray

It really is quite a story how schools close to Aldrich seem to be the center of the MSHSL hockey universe

YOU should be BANNED for calling this year's state tournament the JV Tourney
and just because one kid made it to State by moving from Hill's JV to the fifth seeded team in a weak section, Cretin
and also just because every top team in every section failed to advance
and also just because Edina's cake eating cake walk through JV State will make Class AA look like crass "Eh?"
and also just because every team at the big dance will claim to be Cinderella despite Disney never having recast the role to be a male hockey player (yet)

17th trip since ‘72
Can’t think of nothing better to do
It never gets old, never never gets stale
The Injuns are coming
Like a big ocean whale
Edina and Chan, they are really good
But the bus from the north
Is here from orange hood
The Bears are a challenge
I don’t have a doubt
The Rapids will need to bring it
Like a heavy weight bout
Not sure what will happen
It’s yet to be seen
All I know is it’ll be fun
With the Halloween Machine

My EYE in the sky spied the above mentioned Cretin transfer's sister continuing on Hill-Murray's roster as an important part of the girls' battle with Edina in this year's State Tournament Title game
It's really quite a story how an Edina versus Hill-Murray championship final brings a whole higher level of excitement and legitimacy to any State Tourney

Eye agree with the injuns, watching Rapids will be fun;
they've often scalped Hill-Murray, except in 1991,
especially 1980's title against an undefeated number one
However, one team in orange and black at the X Thursday will surely be one and done

Come down, but it doesn't seem fair
When your squaws skate around us wearing nothing back there
Come down, backdoor regions aren't fair
When your squaws skate around us wearing nothing back there
She's been looking like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When the Bears beat Hill-Murray and get to face the in-jins
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When the Bears beat Hill-Murray but lose in quarters a-gain

EYE can see them coming back in their injun dress
In arenas where YOU see what YOU don't confess
Come down, but it doesn't seem fair
When your squaws skate around us wearing nothing back there
Come down, backdoor regions aren't fair
When your squaws skate around us wearing nothing back there
She's been looking like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means

When the Bears beat Hill-Murray and have to face the in-jins
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When the Bears beat Hill-Murray but lose quarters a-gain

Eye can’t believe what a story CDH is. 5th seed in section unseeded in TheHolyCity and beating Neuts old team in double OT today . What a story it really is.

Appropriate for this historic JV state hockey tourney,
a battle of two teams light on tradition,
with only one state championship each.
One is the loneliest number of state championships, n'est-ce pas?
