Section 8AAA Rundown
The more we have looked into it the more we think there might be a little bit of overlooking when it comes to Detroit Lakes. No I do not believe they will over take Alexandria BUT we are talking about a 17 win team that returns their best three players. In addition, Rocori has a nice group back as well this season so they might be better than people expect. And while Tameron Ferguson Tameron Ferguson 6'2" | PG St. Cloud Tech | 2024 State MN is a special player, also keep in mind the talent that Edwards has plus Mahat is solid as well and the Tigers have some shooting. This could be a better top four in 8AAA than we first realized. And with all of that said, Alex has a chance to play for a state title this year.
