The scoreboard operator could be busy Tuesday night at Kuhlman Field in Edina when the Hornets host Bloomington Jefferson in a battle of talented offenses.

An experienced line of attackers governs the hive for Edina (11-0), ranked No. 1 in the coaches' poll. Leading the group is Hunter Halling (26-11-37), who paces an offense that has been held to less than nine goals just once this season. The Hornets have 119 goals on the season.

Since losing to Eastview 9-6 on April 30, the No. 3 Jaguars (10-1) have been on a tear, winning their last six games and showcasing a dynamic offense.

Senior attacker and Harvard commit Ryan Graff (30-38-68) is a consistent threat, while Weiland Parrish (25-15-40) balances a Bloomington Jefferson attack that's outscored opponents 152-57 this season.

The Jaguars have beaten the Hornets the last two seasons, adding even more allure to our pick for the Top Game of the Week.
