What They Have Looking Forward

6 games (only their conference schedule)…but we have seen them on the Prior Lake, Rosemount, and Lakeville South schedule. So 9…and probably more. Or not.

Our Take

Really curious about Edina. They have pieces coming back, but how much did Moes and Maxwell keep the ship afloat? In addition, they lost some multiple year defenders and a goalie…thats a lot.

On top of that, losing 18-1 in the Section final…not a great look.

There are pieces there for Edina to build off of. Lyric Busby is Cincinnati bound, Kaylee Idrogo-Lam is a mega athlete, and Kathryn Ewers had a great half year at the circle. New goalie, mostly new defense, and replacing 91 goals from 2 players…lots of work to do in Cake-Town in a section where Prior Lake is looking stout and Rosemount is on the rebound.
