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

On to state for Jefferson football

Bloomington Jefferson (6-4) is heading back to the state football tournament for the first time since 2014 following a 42-19 win over Minneapolis Southwest (7-3) Friday in Bloomington in the Section 5, Class 5A final. Jefferson scored touchdowns on its first two offensive possessions of the game, starting with a 39-yard pass from Joe Moore to Gus Vollmuth before sophomore running back Cornay King ran for a 5-yard touchdown to build a 14-0 lead with 1:13 to go in the first quarter. It would be the first of three scores for King, who added a 3-yard touchdown to build a 20-7 lead by halftime and another touchdown in the third quarter to push the lead to 28-7. Jefferson’s Braden Hamilton broke off a 56-yard touchdown 48 seconds into the fourth quarter to make it 35-7. The teams traded big plays, with Southwest quarterback Bennett Featherstone finding Maddox Stukel on a 50-yard touchdown. Hamilton scored on a 1-yard plunge before Southwest running back Lincoln Ribnick hit receiver Owen Boarman on a halfback pass for a 67-yard touchdown. Hamilton’s short score was set up by quarterback Joe Moore breaking loose up the middle of the field before being ruled down inside the

Girls soccer: Mounds View turns back Ponies in state quarterfinals

SPRING LAKE PARK — After outlasting Stillwater for the conference title, Mounds View also denied the Ponies a trip to U.S. Bank Stadium after prevailing with a 2-1 victory in the Class AAA state quarterfinals on Thursday, Oct. 29 at Spring Lake Park High School. The fifth-seeded Mustangs (17-2-1) jumped out to a two-goal lead early in the second half and withstood strong pressure from Stillwater to earn a spot in the semifinals. Mounds View moved on to face top-seeded Lakeville North (15-1-2) in the semifinals on Thursday, Nov. 7, with the winner to meet either third-seeded Eagan (14-2-3) or seventh-seeded Duluth East (15-4-1) in the finals on Saturday morning. The reigning state champion Ponies, who graduated 17 seniors from that squad, finished the season with a 15-3-2 record. “If you had asked me before the season we would go 15-3-2, I’d take that in a heartbeat,” Ponies coach Mike Huber said. “But once you get to that point where you could have or should have won, it stings a little more.” Stillwater held an 11-6 advantage in shots on goal, but were unable to dig out of a 2-0 deficit. With just four players on the field from last

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

Local voters approve school funding increase

MONTICELLO — Public school districts across Minnesota, including those serving Monticello, Big Lake and Becker, will receive additional funding beginning next summer after voters overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment increasing annual payments from the state's Permanent School Fund. The amendment, approved in Tuesday's general election, increases the amount distributed annually from the $2.3 billion fund, which supports public education without raising income or property taxes. Unofficial statewide results early Wednesday showed approximately 73% of voters supporting the measure, with 23% opposed and 4% leaving the question blank. Locally, the amendment received majority support in Monticello, Big Lake and Becker, as well as their surrounding townships, according to unofficial results from the Minnesota Secretary of State's Office. Support was strongest in Monticello, where 4,309 voters supported the amendment and 1,695 opposed it. Including ballots left blank, the measure received 68.8% support in the city. In Big Lake, 64.1% of voters supported the amendment, while Becker voters approved it with 60.7% support. Voters in the surrounding townships were less supportive. The amendment received 57.8% support in Monticello Township, 56.4% in Big Lake Township and 55.5% in Becker Township.
