Other Performances

Justice Sullivan missed Friday night's game after reinjuring his ankle, but his Eden Prairie took care of business with a 21-7 win over Prior Lake. Unfortunately, that is where the season is going to end for Eden Prairie (7-0) as COVID-19 issues forced Minnesota to cancel the rest of the postseason.
