Football playoffs: Irish, Cougars advance to quarterfinals

Class 6A teams now playing for trips to U.S. Bank Stadium Rosemount defensive coordinator Parc Williams watched with admiration as the Irish offense plowed through St. Michael-Albertville for yet another first down. “I’m loving this,” he said. With good reason. Rosemount’s offense was giving Williams’ defense an extended break, and it was bleeding the clock in the second half as the Irish finished off a one-sided 35-7 victory in the second round of the Class 6A football playoffs Nov. 6. St. Michael-Albertville (4-6) shut out three of its previous four opponents, but Rosemount (7-3) quickly eliminated that possibility by driving 72 yards in 10 plays – all on the ground – for a touchdown on the game’s first possession. The Irish kept on rolling, gaining 430 yards – 347 on the ground – in reaching the state quarterfinals for the first time since 2023 and 14th time overall. They will play Prior Lake at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, at Maple Grove High School. With Rosemount’s rushing game dominating, that meant the Irish offensive linemen were having a good time. “It’s a great offense to block for,” said senior Max Meger, the Irish’s center. “Of course, it’s fun running down

North Branch sophomore Caleb Rueter also closed his season at state, placing 32nd in the Class AA boys race with a personal-best time of 16:11.0.

The Isanti City Council has decided to let the experts do the work of installing two new (to Isanti) playgrounds rather than having a Public Works employee get a crash course in installation and lead the city and community volunteers through the installation process. The decision also means there is a good chance — weather permitting — the playgrounds will be open before the end of 2026.
