I heard that Grand Forks is the number one seed going into this weekend's 13 yr old state tourny. Who are the power team's in this tourny and why? Fargo is deep, and West Fargo is always a power, but haven't seen these two team's play much this year wondering how the East or West will fair this weekend?

Minot and dickinson are the top 2 teams in the state. I would put GF at 3 and fargo at 4.after that there is not much depth in the state. I predict a minot dickinson championship game. Not sure which one will win since they are about dead even.

With state a day away I'm suprised there hasn't been more posts, 13 yr. old baseball must not get much love! Minot and Fargo will be a great second round game, I predict it will be close. Dickinson and Grand Forks should be a great battle as well. I don't know what the staff's look like so it's hard to call. I have seen Bismarck and Mandan play and hope they can put something together because each team has a lot of heart! Whapeton and West Fargo are riddle's to me.

Mandan was beaten by Grand Forks this morning 11-0, I guess their pitcher must be pretty good, dude threw a no-no over five innings.

Fargo ended up winning State - they beat GF twice in this tournament - the second game (championship game) was not even close. They went on to defeat the MN State Champs - Minnetonka in the Regional tourney in Burlington IA. They then beat the Iowa team and lost a 1 run game to Denver (CO state champs). Fargo had very good hitting late in the year, solid pitching for ND, and what looked to be top notch coaching.
