7:30 p.m., Saturday, May 16

East Ridge has remained in the rankings because of its defense, which is allowing just 5.0 goals per game. Freshman goaltender Peyton Bixby has answered the call, posting the state's seventh-best save percentage (.667). 

Junior midfielder Evan Woodward (11-4-15) leads the No. 14 Raptors (7-1, 4-1) in goals, while senior midfielder Grant Edwards (10 goals) and senior attackman Max Cooper (10 goals) help alleviate defensive pressure on Woodward. 

No. 1 Prior Lake has become a fixture among the top spots in the rankings. Six players have 23 or more points for the Lakers (9-0, 6-0), led by attackman Carter Collins (20-14-34) and Taylor Kropp (11-21-33).

Junior midfielder Jack Dessler has proven valuable in controlling the game. He leads Prior Lake with 84 ground balls and is winning 65 percent of his faceoffs.
