Predictions first round
Century over Davies (Century balanced and on a run Davies has injuries)
WF over St Mary's (tough to beat WF twice)
Shanley (Shanley to deep although Mary's could be the upset team)
Bismarck (A lot of talent for South to defend but would not be surprised of an upset here)

Shanley plays Minot (not St. Mary's...just clarifying)...I don't see Minot upsetting Shanley

I actually could see Minot beating Shanley, Minot beat st. marys 2-0 and 3-0 in regular season and lost in 2OT in the 3rd seed game which is definately pretty convincing that Minot could be a little under rated. Remember though st. mary tied shanley at east west in west fargo, so I would not be surprised at all, crazy things happen at state......I wouldnt count them out just yet

Minot has great speed, can score alot of goals, and has a good goaltender(also kicker on the football team).
That being said they can pull it off.

Go maji, where would you rank Ben Love among the WDA keepers? Don't be a homer. :)

Glogoza is definitely an excellent GK. Cam and Conrad score goals. Both of these I agree with.
Minot has a defender that is more than decent though. Wrona is without question the best cb in the state.

Great to hear from you all. You can see this State tournament is not an easy one to pick. Davies tying Minot while Minot defeated St. Mary's, St Mary’s defeating Minot, Century defeated by St. Mary's, Bismarck getting beat by Century, then Shanley winning over Bismarck and West Fargo beating Shanley and Fargo South in a victory over West Fargo. So who can tell!!!

This year they are all really good teams but only one will be crowned the State Champions. A lot of good players will be on showcase this weekend showing off their talent. From the remarkable saves by Glogoza to the awesome striking from Tardiff and Hernandaz or midfield play by Keller to the defensive stopping Rotert. We will also see the Anan brothers and Hager brothers put on soccer technique clinics while Rona and Jacobson try to stop them. We will see if TJ can make another game winning goal or be stopped by Andrew Beyer.

There will be the new comer to state Davies fronting off with the seasoned state team of Century. While the inexperienced team of players from South (which is in a unique role this year because they are usually the one loaded with seniors) against the senior experienced team of Bismarck. West Fargo will be in the bracket with Century so there will be no repeat at State while only one will have the chance to make it to the finals. Will Shanley avenge their heart breaking loss to West Fargo or will Bismarck finally get back into the finals for another possible chance at Century.

Don't let the 4th place seed of Minot and South fool you because these are talented teams and remember what happened in the Girls State tournament two years ago.

Soccer is a great sport played by wonderfully talented athletes and good sportsmen. I wish all the best and look forward to a great State Tournament.
