Minnetonka officials cheer new public safety facility

City officials and first responders
celebrate in dedication ceremony

City officials and first
responders praised Min-
netonka’s newly construct-
ed public safety facility
during a ribbon-cutting
and dedication ceremony
Sept. 1.
The event came 548 days
after breaking ground in
March 2020. The public
safety facility includes a
new fire station on the city
campus, and a remodeled
police station using the
existing police and fire fa-
cility.

Remembering 9/11 on its 20th anniversary mindset.
Tragic event brought
the country, Eden
Prairie together
By RAYMOND T. RIVARD
ray.rivard@apgecm.com
On the 20th anniversary of one
of the most significant national
tragedies of the past century, the
following Eden Prairie residents
and city leaders reflect on what
9/11 meant to them then, and why
it continues to affect the national
Police Chief Matt Sackett
Tell us about where you were and
what you were doing when you first
heard about the 9/11 attacks.
I was working as a detective for
the Hopkins Police Department.
I was on my way to downtown
Minneapolis with two other de-
tectives to have criminal com-
plaints reviewed and signed by a
judge. We heard on the radio the
report of the first plane hitting the
(World Trade Center). When we
arrived at the Hennepin County
Government Center, we found a
TV and huddled around it with
Hennepin County Attorney’s Of-
fice personnel. We watched live as
the second tower was struck.
Can you describe the feelings
you experienced upon hearing of
the attacks?
As with many people, I first
felt confused, trying to grasp the
magnitude of what was happen-
ing. That was followed by sadness
for all of the victims of the at-
tacks, and I knew life in America
was going to be changed as we
knew it.
What was the reaction among
law enforcement agencies at the
time and what changes in your job
duties did you have to implement
immediately? What changes came
about long-term for law enforce-
ment?
In Hopkins and I know in Eden
Prairie, there was an immediate
focus on infrastructure security
as well as immediately learning
more about what happened and
any warning signs.
How has that day changed po-
licing in your community and the
state?
I think one of the biggest chang-
es was the work on integrating
communications and emergency
response with police, fire, EMS
and beyond. We saw an empha-
sis on cross-discipline training,
advances in radio technology,
as well as the realization that we
need to be ready to protect our

Klondike Dog Derby coming back in 2022

Get those 2022 calen-
dars out. The Klondike
Dog Derby is back.
After taking a year off
due to COVID-19-relat-
ed restrictions, the Klon-
dike Dog Derby has an-
nounced plans for a Feb.
4 and 5, 2022 event in
Excelsior.
The Klondike Dog
Derby will feature 40
sled-dog teams who will
race 40 miles along the
shores of lower Lake
Minnetonka, passing by
past Deephaven, Wayza-
ta and other communi-
ties before ending back
in downtown Excelsior.
The event in 2020 at-
tracted an estimated
20,000 spectators who
watched 232 dogs and 29

Water Street in Excelsior transformed into the finish line for the Lake Minnetonka Klondike Dog Derby

world-renowned mush-

There’s some pent-up
energy for 2022, especial-
ly after taking a year off.
“We had to make the
call based on the crowd-
size restrictions in place
at the time last year,”
founder and race direc-
tor Bethany Hway said.
“As it got closer, there
were too many unknowns
and factors beyond our
control. After an amaz-
ing first year, we didn’t
want to come back with
a half measure that was
just OK.”

was once home to sev-
eral sled dog races. But
before 2020, there hadn’t
been an official race in
the area for 22 years.
“The Klondike is a little
different than the ones
held in the past,” Hway
said. “Those were short-
er races. This is a longer
race, and it’s really a big
community celebration.”
Hway said for 2022,
they’re planning a Klon-
dike Village in the Excel-
sior Commons, complete
with fire pits, live music,
vendors, ice sculptures,
beer garden, food trucks
and other family-friend-
ly activities.

to the Commons,” Hway
said. “It’s going to feel
like a little winter carni-
val.”
For 2022, the Klond-
ike Dog Derby race will
also move from Sunday
to Saturday.
“It will be easier for
people to make a whole
day of it,” Hway said.
There are also events
planned for the Friday
before the race, such as
Hug-A-Husky, meet-
and-great, and the vet-
erinarian check-up for
the racing dogs.
Organizers believe
they’ll be able to host a
quality and safe experi-
ence.

lake to spread out,”
Hway said. “We have lots
of space. We’re hopeful
and excited to bring it
back for a second time.”
If it’s anything like
2020, attendees are in for
a treat.
“It was incredible,”
Hway said. “We couldn’t
have asked for a more
perfect day in 2020. We
had this beautiful snow-
storm. It was this magi-
cal day that ended with
a blue sky. Water Street
was lined with people.
The enthusiasm was pal-
pable.”
Mushers loved it too.
The people who race
sled dogs typically race
in remote areas. To have
spectators line the lake
was special, she said.
“I think the commu-
nity loves having some-
thing to do in the middle
of winter, too,” Hway
said. “We don’t have as
many things to fill up our
calendar. Everyone has
cabin fever. I think that
really contributed to the
energy in the crowd.”
But, putting on some-
thing like Klondike Dog
Derby costs money.

Mayor Brad Wiersum
said the $30 million in-
vestment is a reflection of
the city’s commitment to
the safety and well-being
of all who live, work and
visit Minnetonka.
“This new state-of-the-

He also thanked local
legislatures for helping
save taxpayers money
through a sales tax ex-
emption on construction
costs.
Wiersum also thanked
all first responders for
their dedicated service.
“It is also a reflection of
the support this city has

put their lives on the line

Do we remember the true pain of that day? Prairie, MN 55344-3730.

Tragedy has a way of
unifying or dividing.
Twenty years ago, it uni-
fied.
Most Americans 30 and
older can tell you exactly
what they were doing two
decades ago on Sept. 11.
Even though most of us
in the Midwest were either
still in bed or just getting
ready for work, all of us
remember the instant we
learned that an American
Airlines plane was delib-
erately crashed into the
North Tower of the World
Trade Center.
I was busy with early
pagination of The Waco-
nia Patriot, the newspaper
where I served as editor
at the time of the now-
infamous 9/11 terrorist
attacks.
Even though the inter-
net was widely available in
2001, most people still got
breaking news from radio
and TV reports. That was
when I first learned of the
plane crash, but I assumed
it was a single-engine craft

strong winds inadvertent-
ly forced it into one of
the buildings. Nowhere in
my brain was there space
that could comprehend a
deliberate act of terror-
ism that would end the
lives of every individual
on board that airplane.
It wasn’t until the second
plane was crashed into the
South Tower 17 minutes
later, just after 8 a.m. our
time, that I stopped typ-
ing and realized this was
not an accident. This was
a terrorist act.
In that disorienting
moment, confusion was
replaced with fear. Both
my daughters were now at
school and other reports
were filtering through
news outlets about a third
plane crashing into the
heavily fortified Pentagon,
just 51 minutes after the
first airliner had crashed
into the North Tower.
Finally, a fourth plane
had been crashed into the
countryside in rural Penn-
sylvania, thanks largely to
a group of passengers who
surmised what was go-
ing on. They stormed the
cockpit, forcing terrorists
to divert from whatever
their intended target may
have been.
By 9 a.m. our time, the
South Tower collapsed.
Just 29 minutes later, the
North Tower experienced
the same fate.
A total of 2,996 people
were killed in the 9/11 at-
tacks.
My wife asked if we
should get our kids from
school. Naturally, every-
one was in “protect mode,”
wanting to pull loved ones
close. Nobody knew what
was going to happen next
because it was all unravel-
ing so quickly. If some-
thing worse was about to
happen, perhaps here in
the Midwest, we wanted
to make sure our kids were
near us. It was raw fear.
We resisted that urge,
as most did, and decided
it would be better if they
stayed in school, trying
to maintain as much nor-
malcy as possible. We also
didn’t want to be part of
any panic had droves of
parents started showing
up at schools demand-
ing kids be released. It
was not easy being apart.
There was, however, a
sense of unification in the
single act of not allowing
terrorists to alter this part
of our lives, even in this
small measure of leaving
kids in school. It was like
a silent way to fight back
– some control in the day’s
chaos.
Still, on that fateful day,
the innocence of a nation
was forever interrupted.
Never before had we felt
so exposed to acts of vi-
olence in the very place
where we previously felt
so safe.
A week later I inter-
viewed a former Waconia
area resident who worked
as a temporary employee
on the 89th floor of the
South Tower. By strange
fate, she normally would
have already been at her
work desk when the first
plane crashed into the
North Tower, but because
a friend had been staying
with her, and taken an
extremely long shower,
she was running late. As
she stood at the base of
the buildings, still 15 min-
utes before she was sup-
posed to be on her floor
for work, she decided she
had time to run into a
café to grab a sandwich.
The shower and decision
to grab that sandwich may
have saved her life. Just
seconds before she would
have jumped on an eleva-
tor to get to the 89th floor,
the North Tower was hit
by the first plane.

EAB-infested trees, buckthorn being
removed at Round Lake
The city of Eden Prairie will soon begin removing buck-
thorn and ash trees infested with emerald ash borer on the
west side of Round Lake.
The ash trees will be replaced next year with various tree
species at a 1:1 ratio.
The project is funded by a grant from the Minnesota De-
partment of Natural Resources, supporting the city’s pro-
posal to keep the nearby trail safe from falling trees and to
avoid deforestation.
Emerald ash borer is a non-native, invasive insect that
attacks and kills ash trees.
The ash borer is native to eastern Asia, where it does
not cause an issue. It was brought to Detroit via infested
pallet wood in 2002. In the United States, EAB kills all
non-treated ash trees. The first confirmed case of EAB in
Minnesota was found in St. Paul in 2009 and it has since
spread across multiple Minnesota counties.
EAB was confirmed in northeast Eden Prairie in April
2017.
All of Hennepin County is under EAB quarantine by
the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, which means
the public cannot transport any hardwood from Hennepin
County to a non-quarantined county.
It means residents cannot transport firewood outside of
the county. On their own, EAB can only fly one mile each
year. Most of the spread of EAB has been through the
transport of infested wood, such as firewood.
Due to the discovery of EAB in Eden Prairie, the city
contracted with Rainbow Treecare to treat public ash trees
growing along streets and in parks. A citywide bulk dis-
count is available through 2023 for Eden Prairie property
owners to treat trees at least 10 inches in diameter and in
good physical condition. The average cost to treat an ash
tree with a 15-inch diameter trunk is about $80 and provides
two to three years of protection. Because of the increase
of EAB-infested ash trees detected each year, it is critical
to begin treatment in 2021 to save ash trees on private
property. Treatment is typically much less expensive than
removal and more environmentally friendly.

9/11
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
communities from attacks
we had never imagined.
We need to be prepared to
think outside the box, but
we also need to remember
our duty to protect and
serve the citizens of Eden
Prairie in a way that makes
them feel safe and secure.
When 9/11 rolls around
each year, what feelings do
you experience when look-
ing back on that day?
Mostly sadness for all
who lost their lives that
day. There were also count-
less others who succumbed
to injuries and sickness in
cleaning up the aftermath.
Fire Chief Scott Gerber
Tell us about where you
were and what you were
doing when you first heard
about the 9/11 attacks.
I was in my office at the
Carver County Govern-
ment Center in Chaska. I
was the risk and emergency
management director for
Carver County at the time
and a paid-on-call firefight-
er/captain for the Chaska
Fire Department on 9/11.
I was at work just starting
my day. As I learned of the
first plane crash, I watched
the second plane crash into
the second tower live on
TV. My life changed that
day and our profession of
public safety was impacted.
Can you describe the feel-
ings you experienced upon
hearing of the attacks?
I watched and under-
stood that this would be
life-changing as it hap-
pened before my eyes.
While impacted and trying
to understand the full im-
pact in the early part of the
events, I continued to ‘work’
and plan as the emergency
management system was
in place and utilized. The
system in Minnesota was
used to help guide decisions
locally. I felt a sense of the
community and the coun-
try coming together as the
hours, days and weeks went
by. This was important and
I believe powerful.
What was the reaction
among firefighting agencies
at the time and what chang-
es in your job duties did you
have to implement immedi-
ately? What changes came
about long-term for fire de-
partments?
In the emergency man-
agement and firefighting
worlds, it changed our
workload. Terrorism be-
came a greater focus in the
all-hazard planning and re-
sponse. Today it continues
Eden Prairie Fire Chief Scott Gerber
to be a part of our plan-
ning and response. While
we were not New York or
other places in the country,
this event changed how we
plan, prepare and train for
all-hazard preparedness.
How has that day changed
firefighting in the communi-
ty and the state?
It has enhanced training
for all-hazard response; it
has provided for a greater
appreciation and under-
standing of what the public
safety community faces as
challenges and opportu-
nities; it has resulted in a
deeper connection to fire-
fighters across the country
and the world; and it has
enhanced understanding
and systems for firefighter
health and wellness.
When 9/11 rolls around
each year, what feelings do
you experience when look-
ing back on that day?
It is important that we not
forget and it is important
that we continue to train
and prepare for all hazards
that face us. 9/11 is a day
to pause and remember, a
day to help tell the stories
of where we were and con-
nect young firefighters to
seasoned firefighters. It is
also a day to recall how, as
a community and country,
we came together.
Ron Case
Ron Case is a retired
sixth-grade teacher who
now serves as the mayor of
Eden Prairie. His perspec-
tive on the anniversary of
9/11, captured through a
phone interview, was about
how things transpired on
the day as school officials
struggled with how much
information to disseminate
to the younger students.
Case said a decision by
school administration was
made around the lunch
hour to tell teachers not
to continue to discuss the
situation that was trans-
forming American life in
real time.
“If you go below fifth or
sixth grade, I think some

schools blocked the com-
munications getting out to
kids about what was hap-
pening,” Case said.
“That morning, my wife
had called me to say, ‘hey,
something is going on and
you might want to turn the
TV on. So I did that with
my class. I was debriefing
it with the kids. Around
about 11 a.m. the school
sent word out not to let
the kids know about what
was happening, that it was
too stressful. I remember
disagreeing with that at the
time, and it’s something
that I’ve received feedback
in later years that I treated
the students respectfully
and like the smart kids that
they were. I found that they
were more than able to deal
with that. In fact, several of
them have said since that
they appreciated that they
do have a memory of that
day and that other kids in
classes where they were not
allowed to know about it
until later on that evening
- they regret not having a

memory of it. So, I think I
did right, and I understand
a little bit from the school
perspective, but I think they
way over-reacted.”
Case went on to talk
about his elementary
school memory: “I have
a very good third-grade
memory of my teacher
having played the actual
radio tape when President
Kennedy was assassinated.
That did not wreck me. It’s
a memory that I have and
I’m glad that I have it. So,
my memory was experienc-
ing the questions with my
class: ‘What’s going on?
What does this mean?’ It
wasn’t the fear, but rather
the elevated anxieties of
the gravity of the moment,
knowing that air space was
being shut down, wonder-
ing what this is going to
mean for our military, just
on and on with the ques-
tions. So, I think it was
the gravity of the moment
that was deep and rich and
meaningful.”
One of the things Case
said he felt was important
was linking the historical
record with living history.
“I told them that we
had just lived through the
Pearl Harbor of our day, or
President Kennedy’s assas-
sination. Each generation
has their moment, and for
millenials it was Sept. 11.”

vehicle – had went missing sometime during the evening
or overnight hours on June 22, 2020. The city employee’s
spouse went on to implicate Weinand in the disappear-
ance of the vehicle, saying that the city employee had been
partially responsible for Weinand’s termination from em-
ployment with Minnetonka after Weinand had allegedly
been discovered stealing city property, according to court
documents.
Minnetonka police officers interviewed Weinand at his
Waconia residence on June 30, 2020, and Weinand ac-
knowledged being familiar with the vehicle and admitted
to probably using it in the past. When asked about his
whereabouts on June 22, 2020, Weinand said he had at-
tended a virtual school board meeting until about 10 p.m.
He further stated that he took his son for a night-time
drive around 2 a.m. to fulfill his son’s instructor permit
requirement for obtaining a license.
Deputies obtained a search warrant for Weinand’s cell
phone records, which indicated he had been in the general
vicinity of where the stolen vehicle was discovered.
An anonymous tip to Crimestoppers also implicated
Weinand in the theft of the vehicle. The anonymous caller
reportedly said that Weinand had described the theft of the
vehicle and subsequent crash as a revenge plot against the
aforementioned Minnetonka city employee. The anony-
mous tipster allegedly said that the scheme was designed
to look like someone had taken the city vehicle and got
into a drunken driving accident on the way to Norwood
Young America, thus implicating the aforementioned city
employee.
Weinand was arrested and booked into Carver County
Jail on Aug. 27, according to jail records. Weinand was
subsequently charged in district court Aug. 30, and re-
signed a 19-year-position on the Waconia school board
the following day, according to district officials.
If convicted, Weinand could face a $100,000 fine and
up to 20 years in prison on the auto theft charge; and a
$10,000 fine and up to five years in prison on the receiving
stolen property charge.

stand all of the different online media avenues that APG-ECM offers. I am not super "techie" and
she is willing to explain things over (and sometimes over) again so that it starts to make some
sense. Being in the real estate service industry, it is important for us to have a positive online
presence and for our community to know that we are here to help them as they transition into
the next chapter in their lives. I feel that in utilizing Digital Targeted Display, Geo-Fencing, Search
Engine Marketing (SEM) and ads on their local newspaper website we are able to offer this to our
clients and customers. Thank you for all that you are doing Shana and team!

Eagles decimate East Ridge in opener

EP football team
jells in 46-0 win
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
Eden Prairie High’s
football team graduated
16 of 22 starters from
last year’s 7-0 team, but
that didn’t stop the Ea-
gles from thrashing East
Ridge 46-0 in the 2021
season opener Sept. 2 at
EP’s Aerie Stadium.
“East Ridge played a
whole new defense, and
since they didn’t scrim-
mage before the first
game, we had not seen
it,” Eden Prairie head
coach Mike Grant said.
It didn’t matter much.
Six minutes into the
first quarter, the Eagles
led 12-0 on a 6-yard
touchdown pass from
Nick Fazi to Jermell
Taylor and a 6-yard
run by fullback Jamal
Palmer-Pruitt, the 5-8,
200-pound senior.
The Eagles would go
on to add four more
touchdowns, plus field
goals of 26 and 30 yards
by Cole Nelson.
“Nelson had a good
game,” Grant said. “He
was two-for-two on field
goals, four-for-four on
extra points and kicked
off for five touchbacks.”
The other Eagle touch-
downs came on pass re-
ceptions by juniors Jer-
mell Taylor and Michael
Gross and rushes by
Owen Anderson and Ty-
ler Walden. Fazi passed
for 51 yards and two
touchdowns. The Ea-
gles’ leading rusher, se-
nior Takhi Vaughn, had
six carries for 62 yards.
Walden gained 35 yards
on seven carries and
Palmer-Pruitt carried
four times for 28 yards.
Grant said, “We had
14 different ballcarriers
in the game. Our offen-
sive line has a new center
and two new tackles and
a new tight end.”

Eden Prairie girls play Minnetonka Thursday

Kelley Taylor goes
against her former
school in soccer
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
As an assistant coach at Min-
netonka High School, Kelly
Taylor played a big role in es-
tablishing the Skippers’ state-
championship tradition.
Now the head coach at Eden
Prairie High, Taylor leads her
girls into a Lake Conference
match against Minnetonka at 5
p.m. Thursday, Sept. 9, at EP’s
Aerie Stadium.
After losing their last game
at the Aerie, 6-0 to Edina on
Aug. 31, the Eagles are anxious
for a bounce-back victory, but
it won’t be easy against an ex-
perienced Minnetonka team
that has started the 2021 sea-
son with a 2-1-0 record. Min-
netonka had seven goals in its
first three games, four of them
by senior forward and captain
Alyssa Marceau. In the back,
the Skippers are led by junior
goalie Maddie Schultz, junior
defender Hope Durenberger
and senior defender Payton
Mahady, who takes most of the
free kicks.
“Eden Prairie is a good
team,” Edina head coach Katie
Aafedt said after her team’s vic-
tory over the Eagles. “When the
score was 2-0, [goalie] Bayliss
Flynn made a decision that led
to a big save.”
Had Eden Prairie converted
that chance, it might have been
a different game.
In the early going, the Ea-
gles have been using two goal-
ies, Lily Mattison, last year’s
starter, and Presley Pergande,
the starter in 2019, who missed
last season with an injury.
Sophomore Elisabeth Rupp
returns a year older and a year
stronger to lead the defense.
Myra Moorjani is looking good
up front, coming off an injury
that kept her out of both soccer
and basketball last year. She is
a scoring threat along with cap-
tains Mim Marsan and Megan
Timmerman.
After playing Minnetonka
Thursday night, the Eagles
travel to Hopkins for a 3 p.m.
matinee Saturday, Sept. 11, at
Hopkins High Stadium. The
Royals played competitively in a
3-1 loss to Minnetonka Aug. 31.
Through the first three games
of the season, Eden Prairie’s re-
cord is 2-1-0.

6A title.
“I like playing two
sports because you meet
different groups of kids,”
Taylor said before a recent
practice.
“The fact that the team
had a perfect season last
year gives us a lot to live
up to,” Obiazor said. “We
have some good match-
ups on the schedule with
teams like Lakeville
South, Rosemount and
Prior Lake.”
Even with so many play-
ers on a football team,
compared to a basketball
squad, Taylor feels great
camaraderie within the
ranks. “Everyone here
gets along,” he said. “The
football team is like a
brotherhood. And every-
one has confidence in each
other.”

By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
The first half of the
Minnetonka-Hopkins
girls soccer match Aug.
31 at Hopkins ended in a
1-1 stalemate.
Hopkins made a strong
showing with senior cap-
tain Lizzie Norman lead-
ing a defensive stand.
In the second half, Min-
netonka broke free for the
only two goals to win 3-1.
Alyssa Marceau, who is
Norman’s club teammate
with Tonka Fusion Elite,
scored all three Skipper
goals.
Norman was the stand-
out player for Hopkins,
and recently she com-
mitted to play collegiate
soccer for North Central

Illinois.
“My club team played

“Our coaches put us in

Jessica Mueller, the for-
mer Eden Prairie High
girls coach, was Nor-

2019 and 2020 seasons.
This year, her coach was
Scott Myers. In her ear-
lier days of youth soc-
cer, Norman played for
her current high school
coach, Justin Hegre, and
Dominic Duenas, the
head boys coach at Way-
zata.
“Jessica offered a lot
of perspective as a for-

on the team and some-
times showed tough love.
We won the State Cup in
2019, and that was a great

so they have to rely on
teamwork and together-
ness. It’s never easy in the
Lake Conference against
perennial state-ranked
teams like Edina, Min-
netonka and Wayzata.
Eden Prairie and St.
Michael-Albertville are
improving teams.
Norman ran on the
Hopkins track team as a
ninth-grader, but soccer
is her only varsity sport
now.
It won’t take long for
Hopkins girls soccer fans
to spot Norman on the
field. She wears No. 7 on
her jersey. Two of the fans
watching every match
will be her parents, Der-
mott and Julie Norman.
They are proud of her
leadership on the soccer
team and her excellence
in academics.
started.”
Looking ahead, Jen-
son said, “We’ll try to
stay healthy and hit our
stride. We have had some
injuries. Henri Denault,
who I think is one of
the best defenders in the
state, has not played yet.
Jackson Parrish, Tommy
O’Brien and Ian Katan
have had injuries.”
Eden Prairie is perhaps
deserving of a top-10
state ranking after wins
over Chanhassen, Sha-
kopee and Edina. A big
test will come at 5 p.m.
Thursday, Sept. 9, when
the Eagles go against
Minnetonka in a Lake
match at Aerie Stadium.
Through its first three
games, Minnetonka had
two shutouts and had
scored 12 goals.
Edina has the Lake
Conference bye on Sept.
9. The Hornets are prepar-
ing to play St. Michael-
Albertville in a 1 p.m.
match Saturday, Sept. 11,
at STMA.

Minnetonka treats home crowd to victory

Hornets regroup
after 30-7 loss to
Esch’s Skippers
By JOHN SHERMAN

Two teams with second-
year head coaches met in
the football opener Sept.
2 at Minnetonka, and the
home team walked away
with a 30-7 victory over
Edina.
Mark Esch came to
Minnetonka last year
after a successful run at
Mankato West that in-

night’s 30-7 football win over Edina. down passes by senior
quarterback Will Martin
Thursday night. Martin
hit Cade Conzemius on
scoring plays of 50 and
12 yards. Jacob McCalla,
the junior running back
had touchdown runs of
19 and 22 yards, both in
the first quarter. Bret Wor-
ley forced a safety for two
points and Ben Schuster
kicked four extra points.
Edina, under the direc-
tion of second-year head
coach Jason Potts, scored
its only touchdown of the
game on a pass play from
quarterback Finn McEl-
roy to Parker Durkin in
the second quarter. Ran-
dy Avant kicked the extra
point.
The Hornets used two
quarterbacks, senior
Adam Berghult and the
junior, McElroy. Evan
Deutsch ran hard behind
Edina’s big offensive line,
but could not reach the
end zone.
Another highlight for
Edina was a fumble re-
covery by Peyton Himley
that stopped a Minneton-
ka drive.
Coach Esch was im-
pressed with the rushing
of Jacob McCalla. “He
would be the first one to
tell you, give credit to our
offensive line,” Esch said.
“Jacob showed patience
and ran hard. He’s a phys-
ical player. Will Martin
commanded our offense
and threw good passes.
“Defensively, we showed
a lot of speed,” Esch con-
tinued. “That shows the
guys worked hard in the
off-season.”
Minnetonka’s big
change from last season to
this one is that the Skip-
pers had 22 starters in the
Edina game. That means
nobody started both ways.
Minnetonka is home
again this week, playing
Blaine in a 7 p.m. game
Friday, Sept. 10, at Einer
Anderson Stadium.
“We’ll enjoy this win
for 24 hours, and then get
ready to play Blaine,” Esch
said.
Edina plays its home
opener this week, facing
perennial powerhouse
Rosemount in a 7 p.m.
game Friday at Kuhlman
Field.

Tonka’s top scorer wears trademark scarf
She nets hat
trick in 3-1 win
against Lake
rival Royals
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
It’s easy to spot Min-
netonka High’s leading
soccer scorer this year -
she’s the one wearing the
scarf.
Senior captain Alyssa
Marceau had four of
the Skippers’ six goals
through the first two
games, including a hat
trick in a 3-1 win Aug. 31
at Hopkins.
Marceau, whose team-
mates call her Al, wears
the scarf not only to keep
her long, curly, blonde
hair in place, but also be-
cause it’s her tradition.
“I have been wearing
a scarf [to play soccer]
since I was 5 years old,”
Marceau said after the
but that didn’t prevent
teammates from looking
for her in front of the net
on corner kicks. She quali-
ties coaches and team-
mates look for in a striker
- speed, endurance, tenac-
ity and a nose for the goal.
Marceau’s goals are
straightforward - “I hope
we can make it to state and
win state.”
There are some other
key veterans on board
with those goals, including
Ryan and Carver up front,
Payton Mahady on de-
fense and Maddie Schultz
in goal.

said.
Tonka Boys Soccer
Tuesday, Sept. 14, is
showdown day for the
boys soccer teams from
Minnetonka and Edina.
Edina hosts the match
at 5 p.m.
“Minnetonka is one of
our best rivalries,” Edina
head coach Dave Jenson
said.
“Before we think about
that one, we have to con-
cerned with Eden Prai-
rie,” Minnetonka head
coach Mike Rogers said.
“We play them Thursday
night [at 7 at EP’s Aerie
Stadium].”
Yes, Eden Prairie will
be a challenge for the
Skippers. Eagle head
coach Rob St. Clair has
guided his team to three
wins to start the 2021 sea-
son. One of the victories
was 2-1 over Edina on
Aug. 31.
That same night, Min-
netonka throttled Hop-
kins 6-1 in a match at
Hopkins High Stadium.
Senior striker Charlie
Pears led the effort with
two goals. Jake Herbert,
Jake Hennen, Torin Fire-
hammer and Alex Gonik-
man also found the back
of the net. Gonikman,
Ketav Udupa and Yousef
Eldashoury were credited
with assists.
Ben Chung had anoth-
er strong performance in
the midfield and Jack Ol-
son anchored the Skipper
defense in front of goalie
Peyton Olson.
“I was a little bit disap-
pointed that we gave up a
breakaway goal,” Rogers
said. “Our defense overall
was solid. The younger
players were able to get
good minutes.”

Tonka tennis team romps to win in season opener

Trojans manage only one
point vs. No. 1 Skippers
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
Minnetonka High’s girls tennis team
didn’t allow Wayzata much breathing
room Aug. 31 in the Lake Conference
opener for both squads.
The Skippers, ranked No. 1 in the
state coaches poll won 6-1 and took
three of the seven individual matches
by 6-0, 6-0 scores, which is something
fans seldom see in a Lake Conference
match.
First-year head coach Brent Lundell
has his team in mid-season form early
in the season.
Against top-ranked Minnetonka,
Wayzata faced the daunting task of
going against six Skippers who all
finished with undefeated records last
season.
Wayzata’s only point came from Pi-
yabongkarn at third singles. She de-
feated Arianna Piedrahita 6-1, 6-3.
Wayzata’s No. 1 singles player, Lucy
Nabedrick, won the first game of her
match against Sarah Shahbaz, but the
Minnetonka junior captain won the
next 12 games for a 6-1, 6-0 win.
Tonka’s Annika Elvestrom defeated
Greta Holmes in the second singles
match 6-0, 6-0, and Meaghan Jurgens
won 6-0, 6-0 over Wayzata’s Michelle
Cao at fourth singles.
Minnetonka’s veteran first doubles
team of Kelsey Phillips and Karina
Elvestrom won a 6-0, 6-0 decision
from Ondine Scrimgeour and Belle
Salisbury.
Emilija Medziukaite and Maddie
Prondzinski of the Skipper scored a
6-0, 6-1 win over Trojans Tatum Bo-
mier and Polly Regan, and at third dou-
bles Isabelle Stroh and Karianna Lien
of the Skippers defeated Nikki Nagiri

The football-basketball

Obiazor and Taylor, mainly

but people around the football
team project him as a Division I
athlete in football, as well.
Coach Grant has great con-
nections with college football
programs, based on his lon-
gevity and his 300-plus career
wins. He has sent many of his
best players to the University
of Minnesota and the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin.
Obiazor described Grant as
“one of the best coaches there
is, on and off the field, and
even a better person.”
After playing East Ridge in
the season opener Sept. 2, the
Eagles are preparing for Week
2 and a 7 p.m. game Friday,
Sept. 9, at Farmington. With
an ever-growing enrollment,
Farmington has become a
good football program south
of the river over the last few
years.
The Eagle defense will have
to deal with a diverse Farm-
ington offense. Captain Con-
nor Weed is expected to start at
quarterback for the Tigers and
may see action in the defensive
secondary. Farmington had a
5-1 regular season in 2020 and
was ranked sixth in the state.
The Eagles were, of course,
even better, going 7-0 and de-
feating St. Michael-Albertville
in the final playoff game.

and Paige Woodrum 6-0, 6-2.
“Minnetonka is even bet-
ter than advertised,” coach
Farmer said. “They’re like a
machine.”
Farmer liked the way Piya-
bongkarn won a point against
the state’s best team. “Tasha
always comes in with a good
game plan,” the coach said.
“She was playing against a
hard hitter [Piedrahita] and
was able to counter-punch.”
Next for the Skipper girls
team is a Lake Conference dual
match against Eden Prairie at
4 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 14, on
the Minnetonka High School
courts. Eden Prairie has most
of its starters back from last
season, including Niyathi Bh-
upatiraju, Katelyn Daravingas
and Annika Anderson in sin-
gles and top doubles players
Ava Neuman, Sophia Paul and
Sami Pomar.
