Grady Dimberio, Rock Ridge

Dimberio led the way last week for a Rock Ridge team that continues to impress. The senior had two four point performances against Brainerd and Forest Lake to help the Wolverines take both games.

Chase Klute, Eden Prairie

Klute continues to be a goal scorer for an Eagle team that at times has struggled to put the puck in the back of the net. Last week the senior had an assist against Minnetonka before scoring two goals against Hibbing/Chisholm to help them win on the outdoor sheet. 

Keaton Weis, Rogers

It was Weis turn to show out as the prolific Royals offense had yet another hot week. The senior tallied eight total points in two games, including a four goal showing against Centennial. 

Gabe Perron, Holy Angels

Perron had success in and out of the state last weekend. The junior had two points against Wayzata before crossing the border and putting up five points against Hudson. 

Blake Schultz, River Lakes

Schultz continued his stellar season last week with another impressive performance, this time against Becker/Big Lake, where the senior had four goals and an assist in a 7-4 win.

Evie Lundeen, Chanhassen/Chaska

Lundeen scored two goals including the game-winner in overtime against Minneapolis on Saturday. 

Grace Kemp, Cretin Derham-Hall

Kemp posted not one but two shutouts last week for the Raiders. The junior stopped all 27 against Blake and followed that up stopping all 20 shots against Park of Cottage Grove.

Bella Prosser, Maple Grove

Prosser was a brick wall in between the pipes for Maple Grove. The sophomore posted two shutouts in a row against Blaine and Osseo/Park Center to help the Crimson improve to 14-6-3 on the season. 

Nina Thorson, North Shore

Thorson continued her stellar senior season campaign last week with two strong performances – posting two hat tricks against Pine City Area and Hibbing/Chisholm.

Mason Witt, Alexandria

Witt helped the Cardinals get a huge win over Benilde-St. Margaret’s over the weekend, dropping 25 points in their 83-80 win over the Red Knights.

JJ Semanko, Hopkins

Semanko scored 25 points to help Hopkins take down DeLaSalle.

Jojo Mitchell, Cretin Derham-Hall

Mitchell had a trio of good performances for a Raider team that stayed unbeaten another week. The senior had 32 points against Stillwater, 21 against Forest Lake, and 29 points versus Edina.

Nolen Anderson, Wayzata

Anderson led the way alongside Christian Wiggins to help Wayzta upset section rival Hopkins, scoring 28 points in the Trojans 93-80 win. 

Mya Moore, Orono 

Moore did all she could against Chaska, scoring 36 points in a 81-76 loss to the Hawks.

Bre Knight, Cambridge-Isanti

Knight posted two strong outings to lead Cambridge-Isanti to two wins last week, scoring 29 points against Big Lake and 36 points against Zimmerman.
