QUESTION ANSWERED
What AAA schools have never been to state?
There are a dozen…
Faribault; New Ulm; St. Anthony; Mahtomedi; Minneapolis Camden (& Henry); Minneapolis Edison; Zimmerman; Big Lake; Delano; Minneapolis Southwest; Mound Westonka; St. Cloud (as a stand alone—both Apollo and Tech, the two schools that combine now for St. Cloud have been).
The school with the best crack this year would be Delano…..but they live in 6AAA same as #1 Orono and #3 Benilde-St. Margaret’s, so another year of looking from the outside may be instore along with the other 11.
Westonka won last night. They face Orono next.
