Panthers, Wildcats will play for the championship

North faces Eagan on Saturday in first all-SSC girls soccer final In a first for the South Suburban Conference, two of its teams will play for a state girls soccer championship Saturday. Eagan, seeking a fourth state championship, and Lakeville North, going for its first, meet in the Class 3A final at 8 a.m. at U.S. Bank Stadium. The winner becomes the SSC’s fifth state girls soccer winner since the league started in 2010, joining Eagan teams in 2024, 2015 and 2017, and the 2022 Rosemount squad. Lakeville North defeated Mounds View 2-1 on penalty kicks and Eagan scored in the second half to beat Duluth East 1-0 in the Class 3A semifinals Thursday, setting up the state championship duel between South Suburban teams. Lakeville North, the No. 1 seed in the state tournament, defeated Eagan 2-0 in a regular-season game Sept. 14.

Knights manage upset in football state tournament

Despite being given a six seed in the Class AAAAAA State Football Tournament, St. Michael-Albertville smoked Woodbury in the first round 28-0 on Oct. 30. Knights quarterback Lucas Bryan was excellent in the round of 32 game. Bryan got things started with a 17-yard rushing touchdown in the first quarter. The Knight defense that got them through the start of a difficult season showed up on their end. Forcing stop after stop, the Knights took control of the game in the second quarter. Bryan punched in a one-yard touchdown on the ground and the team followed it up later in the quarter with a 66-yard explosive rush from Wyatt Mosher to the end zone. Bryan struck a third time in the third quarter on a 29-yard score, and the Knights went up 28-0. The Royals offense couldn't get anything going with the Knights winning every level. The Knights advance to the round of 16 where they'll play two seed Rosemount. The Irish are 6-3 on the year as the Knights improve to 4-5. The Irish beat Osseo 69-0 to advance to this round. The Knights will head to Rosemount Friday, Nov. 6, for the second-round matchup, starting at 7 p.m.

Jurkovich powers Rangers past Edina

Senior running back Mack Jurkovich ran for three touchdowns as Forest Lake defeated Edina 35-21 at home on Friday, Oct. 30 to open the playoffs. The victory gives the Rangers another chance to clear the hurdle that has kept them out of the state tournament. Forest Lake has reached the state-qualifying game four times and has lost all four. The second-seeded Rangers, now 7-2, will get their next opportunity when they host third-seeded Eagan at 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 6. The previous losses have come under different circumstances, head coach Brad Beeskow said, including games on the road. This time, the Rangers will try to break through at home against an Eagan team that also enters at 7-2 after beating Rogers 37-16 in the opening round. “We know that we got a whole week of practice here that we got to really get after to go beat a good team and go to the state tournament by winning that game on Friday,” Beeskow said. He said the seniors have been working toward this opportunity for a long time, with preparation extending back to June and earlier. Sophomores and juniors have helped put them in position to take the next

Becker girls soccer stopped cold in first trip to state semifinals

MINNEAPOLIS — After a historic season highlighted by the extraordinary play of sister Adele and Andersyn Changamire — resetting the MSHSL benchmark for goals (66 by Adele) and assists (33 from Andersyn) in a single season — the Becker girls soccer team fell 6-0 to Academy of Holy Angels in the MSHSL Class 2A state semifinals on Thursday, Nov. 5. The Stars dominated the possession early and often at U.S. Bank Stadium, taking a 2-0 lead into halftime after living in the Bulldogs’ half of the field. More: Sartell boys soccer loses OT heartbreaker in state semis More: Sartell's 'great season' falls short in Class 2A State Quarterfinals Coming out of the lockers, Holy Angels quickly poured on three more goals as senior Emma Danberry secured a hat trick to secure another trip to the state championship game. “We felt like we were in it,” coach Arnold Changamire said. “Even though we conceded goals, I felt like we defended them better in the second half because we just kept attacking the ball.” Holding a 66-goal scorer to few looks at the net is a hard feat to accomplish, but it is something the Stars have done time and time again

Crimson boys soccer loses in heartbreaker at state

As the favored seed in the state tournament quarterfinals, Maple Grove boys soccer had a tough task on its hand. Familiar foe St. Paul Central was the first-round opponent on Oct. 29. The two teams had met in the season, and the Crimson survived a 5-3 slugfest. This time, the Minutemen won and ended the Crimson's season in penalty kicks. The first half started exactly how the Crimson drew it up. In the first 10 minutes, star senior midfielder Parker Carlson managed to control a bouncing ball on the Minutemen side of the field. Carlson made a couple moves and fired a through pass between a flurry of Minutemen defenders. Fellow senior and captain Bodi Nelson took the pass and rifled a perfect left footed shot past the goalkeeper into the back of the net. The Crimson now played with the lead, but both teams would continue to find offensive opportunities. The Minutemen had a few shots or drive in close to the goal that goalkeeper Raidyn Bailey stopped. The best play of the game from Bailey came near the end of the first half. Leading 1-0, a cross came into the box and a header directed at the ground

Football: Ponies fall short against Prior Lake

SAVAGE — Seeking a fresh start in the postseason, some familiar challenges hampered Stillwater in a 28-13 loss to Prior Lake in the first round of the Class AAAAAA football playoffs on Friday, Oct. 30 at Prior Lake High School. The fifth-seeded Ponies (2-7) were locked in another tight battle through three quarters, but unable to make enough plays down the stretch — or avoid their opponents from seizing those opportunities. “Unfortunately, this feels like a broken record,” Stillwater coach Beau LaBore said. “It feels like most of the games that we’ve played.” The Ponies outgained Prior Lake (360-340), gained more first downs (26-14), and held a nearly 14-minute advantage in time of possession while running more than twice the number of plays (82 to 40), but were held scoreless in the second half as the Lakers (5-4) pulled away for their fifth straight victory after starting the season 0-4. Prior Lake’s reward is a road trip to top-seeded Moorhead (9-0) on Friday, Nov. 6 for a spot in the state tournament. The Spuds join Champlin Park (9-0) as the only remaining teams without a loss among the state’s largest schools. Stillwater moved the ball throughout the game against a

Minnesota and St. Thomas start a new rivalry. Proximity doesn't mean they'll see each other often

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The novelty of the first men's basketball matchup in 92 years between Minnesota and St. Thomas, two schools a mere 3 miles apart along the winding Mississippi River, will give the Gophers a rare attendance boost during the first week of the season. That doesn't mean this game will become a regular occurrence. Extra ticket sales don't factor into NCAA Tournament selection criteria. “If you take the name off the jersey or that they were local, there’s no upside to us playing them,” Minnesota coach Niko Medved said. The Gophers were expecting around 10,000 fans, Medved said, for the game on Friday night. They only topped that mark last season twice, against rival Wisconsin and Nebraska, another nearby Big Ten foe. The 14,000-seat arena — now officially called The Barn by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota — will be livelier than it's been for any nonconference game in years. St. Thomas, in its sixth year as a Division I program after making an unprecedented jump directly from Division III, will undoubtedly bring its best for the biggest crowd it'll likely play in front of all season. But despite the fact the Tommies won 48 games

Gophers, Tommies begin 2026-27 basketball seasons

The college basketball season begins tonight, and it doesn't look promising for Minnesota's teams. Gophers men: A Columbus Dispatch preseason media poll has Minnesota finishing 13th in the 18-team Big Ten conference. Their best player, Cade Tyson, is still awaiting a court decision on a class-action lawsuit that will determine if he's eligible to play. If he can play, ESPN says the Gophers are a " a dangerous bubble team ." Gophers women: Coming off last year's Sweet 16 appearance, Minnesota looked like it would contend for a Big Ten title this season. Preseason polls put the Gophers among the nation's top 20 teams. Yes, but: That was before they lost star guard Tori McKinney to a season-ending knee injury . St. Thomas men: This will be the Tommies' second year of eligibility for March Madness. They're picked to finish a close second in the Summit League, but if they can win the conference they would get an automatic bid. St. Thomas women: After a 16-16 finish last year, the Tommies have a new coach, Mandy Pearson, who came from University of Minnesota-Duluth. The intrigue: For the first time in the Division I era, the Gophers and Tommies will play
