the 3-0 hole that williston dug themselves was the factor.
but give BHS credit, they did capitalize on the mistakes, they ahve speed and have confidence in their play right now.
that lone loss to GPR (one goal by the way)-- is the only blemish.
BHS is the for real team in the WEST.
Deeper bench then in years past, that helps too. coaching is improved, as well as chemistry of the guys.
they all know,(talking to a couple of them), that this is the year they need to make noise and win the WDA and go at the State tourney with a purpose. they have the tools , the confidence and to me that is what you need to make a splash at State.
they have beaten a good team(although not playing that good at the time)-in South, lost that game to GPR(3-2), and have pretty much man handled everyone out here in the WEST.
they can now just work ont he fine tuning all the way to State(--but don't stumble at WDA--need that #1 seed to have the right bracket for the trip to the finals)....
My view is this-- Labare, Seeburg, Geiss, richter and Hockehalter along with decent Eichcle goal tending gets them the WDA title and then the door is open to MAKE BIG noise at state.
I like this group of kids--this year working hard and knowing that BHS probably doesn't have another shot for a few years, so they need to carry the torch....
anyone else think so?

They don't have enough firepower to make that much of a racket, unless Groves played out of his mind and got a shutout to beat GFC/South/GPR at EDC.

now now-- the season isn't over and I think that BHS will be the #1 seed--unless they fall on their face at WDA.
they are a good grp... they want to win State(that will not happen) and have been working hard for that goal.
East is still the Fav's for the Big Show in FEB. (I mean two teams from the East playing late oin Sat. eve Feb.23rd at the REA......)
BHS, I still think Mandan, Dickytown, Williston emege from WDA.
GFRR, GPR, South, and either DL or GFC(probably GFC--I know i know-- I said this before- BINA is a GOOD Coach)
those battling for that fourth spot could end up to be-- DL, GFC, Shanley-- but they still have to all play the EDC-- anything can happen there..
Shanley upset RR that one year...??/ right??? and then RR had to fight ot get to state.
Shanley lost next two and didn't go... but played tough...
WEST is Almost set... East-- you guys have a lot to muddle through......more variables in the EAST as it stands.
