In the first consolation semifinal,
Lakeville South advanced to the final following an 18-7 victory over Blaine. Leading from
the start, the Cougars got five goals from
Amanda Boisjolie and three each from Chloe
Crosby and Emma Schaefer. Blaine’s Abby
Jones scored four goals.
The second consolation semifinal needed
overtime to decide a winner. That victory
went to Maple Grove, thanks to Hailey
Herdine, who scored at 4:51 of the extra session to send the Crimson to the consolation
final.
Cretin-Derham Hall of St. Paul scored the
last five goals of the game to force an overtime. Megan Reis and Bree Osbourne had
three goals each for Cretin-Derham Hall.
Herdine scored a single-game state tournament record eight goals, and along with
her three assists, set a mark for most points
(11) in a game. Her goal-scoring record
snapped the previous mark of seven held by
four others. Herdine’s single-game points
record breaks the mark of 10 set by Olivia
Nolan of The Blake School in 2015.
In the first of four quarterfinals, The Blake
School opened with a 12-10 victory over
Lakeville South. Shannon Ellis scored three
goals and assisted on another for the Bears.
Annie Lyman, Sophie Skallerud, Emily
Johnsrud and Carly Bullock had two goals
apiece. Chloe Crosby paced Lakeville South
with two goals and three assists.
Prior Lake built an 8-2 lead at the half en
route to a 16-6 victory over Blaine in the second quarterfinal. Ashley Norberg fueled Prior
Lake with four goals and four assists. Abby
Jones scored all six goals for Blaine.
Stillwater Area also used a strong first half
to build a big lead in what would end as a 146 victory over Maple Grove in the third quarterfinal. Carly Fedorowski scored five goals
and assisted on another for Stillwater Area,
which extended a 9-3 halftime lead to 11-3
five minutes into the second half. Olivia
Konigson chipped in three goals for the
Ponies. Tippy Hill and Hailey Herdine had
two goals each for Maple Grove.
In the final quarterfinal, top-seeded Eden
Prairie cruised to a 20-2 victory over CretinDerham Hall. Naomi Rogge had five goals
and an assist to lead six different players who
scored for Eden Prairie. Among them, Kelly
Wolfe and Sammie Morton, who had four
goals each.

den Prairie retained possession of the
championship hardware following an
11-9 victory over The Blake School of
Minneapolis. The Eagles overcame a six-goal
deficit to win the state title for the second
consecutive season and fourth time overall.
Eden Prairie’s other championships were in
2007 and ’09.
The Eagles scored seven of the final eight
goals to end the first half to forge a 7-all
deadlock at the break. Naomi Rogge and Sara
Woodring had two goals each in the spree.
After Blake opened the scoring on a goal
from Shannon Ellis to take an 8-7 lead in the
first minute of the second half, Eden Prairie
responded with four unanswered goals for an
11-8 advantage. Brooke Lewis had two goals
in that surge for the Eagles.
Rogge finished with three goals and an
assist for Eden Prairie. Lewis had three goals
as well while Woodring had two goals and
five assists. Emma Burke, Annie Lyman,
Emily Johnsrud and Shannon Ellis had two
goals each for the Bears.
Since the state tournament began in 2007,
Eden Prairie and The Blake School are the
only programs to emerge as state champions.
In the third-place game, Carly Fedorowski
scored four goals, including the eventual
game-winner late in the second half, that gave
Stillwater Area a 7-6 victory over Prior Lake.
Lexi Peer led the Lakers with two goals.
In the consolation final, unseeded
Lakeville South recorded a 13-10 victory over
No. 5 Maple Grove. Emma Schaefer scored
four goals for the Cougars and Chloe Crosby
added three more. Christina Kampa and
Emily Herdine paced Maple Grove with three
goals each.
In the first championship semifinal, The
Blake School out-lasted Prior Lake for a 12-10
victory. Annie Lyman and Shannon Ellis led
The Blake School with three goals apiece.
Emma Burke, Sophie Skallerud, and Emily
Johnsrud each contributed two goals for the
Bears. Ashley Norberg had four goals and two
assists, and Sarah Pierson added two goals.
In the lower-bracket semifinal, Eden
Prairie earned a return trip to the championship match with a 15-14 victory over No. 4
Stillwater Area. Eden Prairie scored four goals
in the first three minutes, but Stillwater Area
tied the game 5-5 on a goal from Caitlin
Carter at 12:02 in the first half. Each team
went on little mini-runs, but Eden Prairie
accounted for the final margin on a goal from
Kacie Riggs at 16:40 in the second half.
Naomi Rogge led all scorers with six goals
and two assists. Sammie Morton and Sara
Woodring added three and two goals, respectively, for the Eagles. Carly Fedorowski paced
Stillwater Area with four goals and Abby
Hagberg added three more.
Eden Prairie’s Naomi Rogge nets the ball ahead of Ellie Ankeny of The Blake School in the eighth meeting
of the Eagles and Bears in the tournament’s championship game. Rogge scored three goals to lead
Eden Prairie to its second consecutive title with an 11-9 victory.
