08-09 Section 4AAAA Preview

The 08-09 Conference and Section Preview series continues with our 21st preview and the 8th preview of the 11 metro area sections. In this edition, a look at section 4AAAA. If you missed any of the previews, you can find links to all of them on the Section & Conference Previews page.

Defending Champion: Henry Sibley

Predicted Seeding:

  1. Henry Sibley
  2. Cretin-Derham Hall
  3. Tartan
  4. Stillwater
  5. Woodbury
  6. St. Paul Central
  7. White Bear Lake
  8. North (St. Paul)
Sibley returns a loaded team so they're the obvious favorite. Seeing Seantrel Henderson of CDH against those bigs in a section final would be entertaining. One thing that CDH always seems to have are shooters and that's exactly what you need against Sibley. Tartan returns dangerous perimeter play and Marc Sonnen is the type of scorer who can carry a team on his back in a big game. Not to mention they'll always be tough defensively. Don't expect another stretch of 1 FG in 20 minutes in the tournament this year. Stillwater will be a tough out, but they're a year away. Seeing a rematch of last year's 1st round Woodbury upset over Stillwater would be interesting. Woodbury's running game is enough to pull an upset if Nick Quicksell and Bo Schiffler get hot.

Section Winner: Henry Sibley
