MN FALL LEAGUE
As I expected the best teams are not all together in the Fall League, but spread out over three divisions. I can't believe all 8 teams in the Blue are better than the top team in the white. Next year someone give me a call before they put the schedules out so the best teams can knock heads.

INTERESTING RESULTS
St. Paul Central's #2 team beat Lakeville North last week 42-39 in the Red division.
Also in a game of note, Burnsville Black knocked off Kennedy in an exhibition game 36-27. This game doesn't count in the standings.
Centennial has split squads and they lost 37-29 to St. Paul Central. If Central had their full team there (I wasn't there) it is a positive sign for Centennial.
Tartan didn't show up for their Green games so Minnetonka and "Metro Ballers" each picked up foreit wins.
In the White Division Eden Prairie pulled off a 27-23 win over Hopkins.
THIS WEEK
On Sunday at Armstrong St. Paul Central will be playing two teams that started the FL at 2-0: Eastview and Mpls South.
