The Prep Bowl is here, but for three Wright County Area football teams, they are still one win away from playing indoors at US Bank Stadium, and it’s going to be cold on Friday night, but knowing they are just one win away will warm the hearts of the players, coaches and fans. Last week I went 3-1 in my picks and now am 53-16 on the season. Here is a look at the match ups on Friday, and my picks for the State Quarterfinal games. Good luck to all the teams!

Elks shut out by Monticello in Section 7-5A championship

The No. 2-seeded Elk River football team saw its season come to an end with a 23-0 loss to top-seeded Monticello in the Section 7-5A championship Friday, Nov. 6, in Monticello. In a game in which both teams controlled the ball for extended stretches and scoring opportunities were limited, two Elk River turnovers proved costly against a talented Monticello team. The shutout was Elk River’s first in more than 14 years, dating back to a September 2012 loss to Totino-Grace. Monticello opened the scoring on its first possession, marching 74 yards in 12 plays before Max Lofgren scored on a 13-yard run with 6:26 remaining in the first quarter. Carson Deibele ran in the two-point conversion to give the Magic an 8-0 lead. Elk River responded with a promising drive, moving 51 yards in 12 plays to the Monticello 21-yard line as the first quarter ended. However, a fumble on the first play of the second quarter ended the threat, giving the Magic possession at its own 13. Monticello capitalized, driving 87 yards in 10 plays and scoring on a 12-yard touchdown pass from Deibele to Johnny Moore with 7:12 remaining in the half. Deibele and Moore connected again on

SECTION CHAMPS: Crusaders flip the script in rematch

The Mayer Lutheran football team had a stellar 2026 season, scoring nearly 40 points per game, cruising past almost every opponent in their way. There was one road bump however, a 35-7 loss to Cleveland. That lone loss did not sit well with the Crusaders, and when they got their chance to avenge that loss, they jumped at the opportunity with a ferociousness that sends them on to the Class A State Tournament. “Our kids wanted revenge from the last game, and they played like it,” said coach Dean Aurich. The Crusaders got on top of Cleveland from the start, and left no doubt on who would win the rematch from the outset. Mayer Lutheran’s defense was stifling, forcing six turnovers. Gabriel Shimanski, Chase Zupke and Preston Vanderwater each had an interception, with Zupke and Vanderwater returning theirs for touchdowns. Jonah Aurich, Isaac Whitby and Reid Baumann each caused a fumble, with Jack Friske, Mason Lunow and Cooper Getten recovering a fumble. “Our defense attacked them so quickly, they just couldn’t get any rhythm going and caused two turnovers that were huge — pick sixes that went all the way,” said Aurich. “Our defense just took them out of their

Paszkiewicz to take helm at Shoreline Fire Department

John Paszkiewicz has been named Shoreline Fire Department’s new chief. The 40-year-old Paszkiewicz takes over the new role with extensive experience after serving 12 years in the Long Lake and Shoreline Fire Departments. Paskiewicz most recently has been the deputy chief under Mike Heiland, who is retiring at the end of the year. Paskiewicz is very excited to lead the department, albeit maybe a little sooner than he had anticipated. “For me personally, I kind of feel like the doors are opening sooner than I may have expected career-wise, but I do feel like I’m prepared to take on this role,” he said. “I feel great about the people we have in place right now, and I just feel incredibly optimistic about the future of our department.” Paszkiewicz has also served as a lieutenant, captain and battalion chief during his career. “John brings a deep understanding of our department, our communities and the work ahead, “ said Shoreline Fire Board President and Orono City Council member Steve Persian. “His experience and leadership will be valuable as we continue building a strong, unified department.” The Shoreline Fire Department is coming up on its one-year anniversary. The new department began operations on
