The Conference Review – Northwest Suburban

<p>One of the biggest and best leagues in Minnesota is the Northwest Suburban and today we review the league including the All Conference team. </p> <p><strong>The Final Standings (with the NHR Prediction)</strong></p> <p><strong>League 1 </strong></p> <ol> <li>Maple Grove (2)</li> <li>Champlin Park (1)</li> <li>Andover (7)</li> <li>Blaine (4)</li> <li>Coon Rapids (3)</li> <li>Centennial (5)</li> <li>Anoka (6)</li> </ol> <p><strong>League 2 </strong></p> <ol> <li>Park Center (1)</li> <li>Spring Lake Park (5)</li> <li>Totino-Grace (3)</li> <li>Robbinsdale Armstrong (4)</li> <li>Rogers (6)</li> <li>Osseo (2)</li> <li>Elk River (7)</li> </ol> <p><strong>The Review</strong></p> <p>At the Top – Maple Grove and Park Center.  The Pirates didn't quite have the year as expected but they were in position to play for state.  The Crimson earned their way to state yet again and played even better than expected.  PC, Spring Lake Park, Totino-Grace, and Armstrong were all ranked level teams in their half of the league while Maple Grove played to that level on the other side. </p> <p>The Surprise –  Several surprises in the Northwestern Suburban.  Armstrong beat some big name teams and earned their way to the top ten for some time playing better than expected, as we said the Crimson were a few games better than expected, and Spring Lake Park wasn't just good, they were a legit section championship winner contender good. </p> <p>What Happened? - Osseo has a strong sophomore group but the season did not go quite the way many thought it would, although the talent is shining through in some spots.  The Rebels of Champlin Park started the year as a top ten team and finished at 18-10, but had some rough spots. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Postseason All Northwest Suburban Conference </strong></p> <p>***We used the All Conference team voted on by the coaches and then added our twist of first team, second team, etc (we will make a change here and there if some of the choices are quite odd in our mind, but that's rare). </p> <p><strong><u>First Team</u></strong></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846104" first="Dain" last="Dainja"] of Park Center (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="721976" first="Lovell" last="Williams"] of Maple Grove (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="549408" first="Josh" last="Brown"] of Park Center (Sr)</p> <p>DT Frierson of Park Center (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846121" first="Blake" last="Remme"] of Spring Lake Park (Sr)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Second Team</u></strong></p> <p>Taison Chatman of Totino-Grace (Fr)</p> <p>Francis Nwaokire of Champlin Park (Jr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="721919" first="Hezekiah" last="Iyawe"] of Armstrong (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="721857" first="Gabe" last="Myren"] of Spring Lake Park (Sr)</p> <p>CJ O'Hara of Totino-Grace (Fr)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Third Team</u></strong></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="721977" first="RaShaun" last="Parker"] of Maple Grove (Sr)</p> <p>Bernard Omooira of Osseo (Soph)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="549398" first="Adam" last="Biewen"] of Robbinsdale Armstrong (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="774785" first="Calvin" last="Foy"] of Andover (Jr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846186" first="Jake" last="Breitbach"] of Armstrong (Sr)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Fourth Team</u></strong></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846155" first="Daydor" last="Phillips"] of Spring Lake Park (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="532558" first="Devin" last="Burger"] of Totino-Grace (Jr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="955882" first="Isaiah" last="Giles"] of Blaine (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="774746" first="Joshua" last="Strong"] of Champlin Park (Jr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="721848" first="Cooper" last="Olson"] of Champlin Park (Sr)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Fifth Team</u></strong></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846250" first="Jackson" last="Aurelius"] of Coon Rapids (Sr)</p> <p>John Haakenson of Maple Grove (Soph).</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846133" first="David" last="Ijadimbola"] of Park Center (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="774895" first="Caden" last="Boettcher"] of Maple Grove (Jr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="850711" first="Joshua" last="Ola-Joseph"] of Osseo (Soph)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><u>Sixth Team</u></strong></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846257" first="Thomas" last="Glad"] of Rogers (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="846263" first="Jacob" last="Say"] of Spring Lake Park (Sr)</p> <p>Aaron Kaul of Blaine (Soph)</p> <p>Payton Mielke of Elk River (Sr)</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="532550" first="DJ" last="Akpati"] of Totino-Grace (Jr)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
