Minnetonka ran out the last series as they were able to come away with the 41-10 semifinal victory over Chanhassen. With that victory that earns them a spot in the region finals. They will play Eden Prairie in the final.

After the game I was able to talk to DeAndre Singleton and head coach Dave Nelson about the game. DeAndre said that his team trained hard for this game and the team was able to come up and make plays. He also thinks that his team has to move the ball in order to be successful in the finals.

Head coach Dave Nelson thought that the kicking game was sloppy and there were other aspects in the game that his team was sloppy. He thought that his team ran the ball well and no one got hurt. Coach Nelson also thought that DeAndre Singleton played well. He is new at running back and has a good work attitude and is an all around good athlete.

Dave Nelson also said in the finals Minnetonka will have to hold Eden Prairie to two scores and will have to put points on the board. They can't let them run wild around the field.
