<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are the match-ups for the Class AAAA State Tournament games and the top prospects to know in Class AAAA.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Wayzata vs Rogers</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560807' first='Isaac' last='Olmstead'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='2423583' first='Treyvon' last='Mix']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560867' first='Christian' last='Wiggins'] vs Christian Wagner</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2296650' first='Brayden' last='Sandmann'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1734188' first='Blake' last='Dalluge']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1454976' first='Wyatt' last='McBeth'] vs Jaxson Fuller</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1287438' first='Jackson' last='McAndrew'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1574224' first='Colton' last='Kazmierkoski']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thoughts: Wayzata will be deeper and has been going deeper. They will also be bigger and they will have the guards to move with all of the Rogers skilled weapons. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Cretin-Derham Hall vs Farmington</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560868' first='Joseph' last='Mitchell III'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1617794' first='Ryan' last='Beckwith']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1284086' first='Anthony' last='Knight'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='2422061' first='Jonah' last='Ask']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Miles Bollinger vs [player_tooltip player_id='1439459' first='Tyler' last='Beckwith']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Aidan Macke vs Nik Domier</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Monteff Dixon vs [player_tooltip player_id='1287441' first='Brandon' last='Hrncir']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thoughts: Farmington beat CDH by ten the first time and they are playing very physical basketball right now. That said.... Rochester JM almost knocked the Tigers out of the playoffs with the speed and quickness of [player_tooltip player_id='2359929' first='Chan' last='Malith']. Lakeville North did not have a guy that was quick like that, but CDH does. Joseph Mitchell is that guy. CDH is going to have trouble with the size and physicality of Farmington, and the Beckwiths are playing fantastic. But I don't know that Farmington has a guy that can limit Mitchell. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Coon Rapids vs Minnetonka</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2362559' first='Jerry' last='Freeman'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1284083' first='Andy' last='Stefonowicz']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1288680' first='Kenny' last='Jones'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1574218' first='Duke' last='Richardson']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1547625' first='Jackson' last='Hettwer'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1288767' first='Greyson' last='Uelmen']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1984806' first='Jaxon' last='Young'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1284162' first='Jordan' last='Cain']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1284111' first='Conner' last='Jordan'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1296153' first='Kayden' last='Wells']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thoughts: Coon Rapids has won five in a row and they have some good players that are going to get some deserved attention this week. But Tonka is playing in a way scoring the basketball with all of their pieces playing at a strong level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Eagan vs Park Center</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1434063' first='Max' last='Buslee'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1172835' first='Casmir' last='Chavis']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560747' first='Alex' last='Schroepfer'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1452542' first='Ari' last='Gooch']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2359970' first='Liam' last='Madigan'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1549538' first='Jackson' last='Fowlkes']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Trevor Syring vs [player_tooltip player_id='1574214' first='Temi' last='Omotoyinbo']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1943059' first='Charlie' last='Birk'] vs [player_tooltip player_id='1284106' first='Chiang' last='Ring']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thoughts: I looked at a few videos of Eagan quick, looks like they have been pressured this year which is good because it's going to be coming unlike they've never seen before from the Pirates. The Pirates are going to be flying all over the court and Eagan will need the perfect game to slow them. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Top 25 Senior
