The Eagles lost a top Senior and a top sophomore to transfer but they still have enough talent to not only make a run at the state title but be the favorite to win the state title. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Monticello. The Magic won just 11 games last year but they had a winning record in league play, they have three of their top four guys back, and between Soroko and Miller, they have two really good players.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Becker. Becker was 8-4 in league play a season ago and they return nearly all of their good players from last season, and most of them are going to be juniors! Becker has a chance to be second in this league.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fridley. The Tigers had a surprising, excellent season a year ago but most of those players were lost to graduation. Can they pull off two surprises in a row?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Big Lake. A new coach and almost entirely new rotation, this is a reset for Big Lake.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>St. Francis. The next carry over person to be the lead on this team is St. Francis. We aren't sure if they will be better than last year but we also don't think they will be much worse.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Zimmerman. Zimmerman has a couple solid players that could get them to the middle of the league.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Princeton. After winning their conference several years in a row Princeton fell to four wins. They should improve but how much?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
