Defending Class 2A Hill-Murray has set the table nicely for a repeat run.
The Pioneers are the top side in the big school division after downing previously unbeaten Woodbury in the Class 2A, Section 4 final.
Brackets for both classes were unveiled Saturday morning.
Defending Class A champion Dodge County is seeded fourth, setting the stage for a potential showdown with top-seeded Warroad in the semis, should both teams advance. Dodge County toppled Warroad in overtime of last year’s state title game.
There is no East Metro team in the Class A field for the second straight year.
The winner’s bracket for each tournament will be played at Grand Casino Arena in downtown St. Paul. The semifinals and finals for each class will be televised on KSTC Channel 45. Quarterfinals can be viewed online on the Neighborhood Sports Network.
