Here is where some teams will be in the MYAS tournament field for April 14-15. Coon Rapids, Chaska, and North St. Paul all will be hosting 17u events. St. Louis Park will have the 16s.
There is also going to be a pair of AAU tournaments at Bethel and at Rochester. Their schedules are not up yet.

Further afield in Chicago there is the Windy City Classic with 112 teams run by USJN. From MN teams at the 17/16 level include: East Metro Elite; Quest; Southern Minny Elite; and the Suns. From Iowa the All Iowa Attack and Iowa Elite will be in that age level too. From Wisconsin teams include Fastbreak, Fox Valley Hustle 17 & 16; Madison Hawks; and Playground 17 purple & white.
In the 13/14 level Midtown Lady Monarchs and Mpls Lady Cats will be there along with the Suns.

AAU WEEKEND RESULTS
The East Metro Elite 17s beat the Minnesota Stars Antl by four points. The Athletic ability of the East Metro team took over in the 2nd half. East Metro took the championship that day.

If you have box scores or other results I will get them up. I will have full details when available.
