Hibbing was a top team last year and although they have a Mr. Basketball candidate in [player_tooltip player_id="850731" first="Ayden" last="McDonald"], they did lose most of their veteran line-up from a year ago. Cloquet might have the most talent returning but the question will be, is it enough to stop Ayden and the Bluejackets? Grand Rapids and Hermantown each have a standout but do they have the depth to challenge? The section is small and the section could be wide open, it all depends on how teams gel. </p>
