Turnovers prove costly in Wayzata football defeat

After shellacking White Bear Lake 63-48 in the opening round of the state Class 6A football playoffs on Oct. 30, the Wayzata football team couldn’t provide an encore against No. 1 seed Champlin Park on Friday, Nov. 6. The Rebels used home-field advantage and four touchdown passes by quarterback Cash Miller to end the Trojans’ 2026 season by a final score of 48-13. Four turnovers took the steam out of the Trojans’ offense and for the first time this season senior quarterback Thor Soukup didn’t throw a touchdown pass. Wayzata scored its first touchdown of the game on a 4-yard run by senior halfback Michael Criswell in the second quarter to tie the score 7-7, but that was the last offensive bright spot until late in the fourth quarter when Alex McGarvey's 13-yard pass to Parker Milkes accounted for Wayzata’s final touchdown of the season. With the loss, Wayzata finished the season 5-5 overall – A far cry from last season’s 1-8 overall mark. First-year head coach Derrin Lamker pumped new life into the program and the first-round playoff victory broke a playoff drought that dated back to the 2021 season. Coach Lamker’s reputation as an offensive genius was verified

Centennial ends Eden Prairie’s football hopes 31-13

There was stunned silence in Eden Prairie’s football stands during the first half of a state Class 6A playoff game against Centennial Nov. 6. The halftime scoreboard showed the Eagles down 31-0. Head coach Mike Grant has not been in a situation like that in many years, and all he could do at halftime was make plans for a comeback. That comeback happened, but it wasn’t enough. Two Eagle touchdowns in the second half and a clamp-down by EP’s defense left the home team short in a season-ending 31-13 loss. “We had a tough night,” coach Grant said. “Centennial is a really physical team. They had no turnovers and made no mistakes. We obviously played a lot better in the second half, but Centennial kept the ball on the ground. Their quarterback finished with 116 yards on 23 carries and they controlled the ball.” Centennial had the ball for 25 minutes and 45 seconds of the 48-minute game. For a very rare time, Eden Prairie trailed in rushing yardage 290-217. Two seniors scored Eden Prairie’s touchdowns in the second half. Windlan Hall had the first score on one of his best runs of the season. He ran right, then cut
