We have hockey up here. Very big deal. I know Texas is football, Indiana is basketball, Minnesota is hockey and I think Florida is baseball. I wish I could go back to high school!
Biggest State Tournament in Your State

Yeah that's a very big deal down there. I know basketball in Cali is a big deal as well. It's a shame you couldn't go to the state hockey tournament up here it's incredible, and the girls...man, the girls. I remember in HS state tournament in hockey was like, LIFE. It was like if you did it, you were legends, not only in HS but really in the entire state. :hatsoff:
I wonder who said soccer and other.

Do Canadians even have high school sports? I'm pretty sure there isn't HS hockey, right; they all play Juniors?

In Saskatchewan, there is no high school hockey as far as I know. It's probably due to the large amount of leagues that we already have for high schoolers, like the WHL. However, most schools have your basic high school sports teams: volleyball, soccer, basketball (One of the schools in Saskatoon holds an international tournament every year), Canadian football... My school had a curling team. I'm not sure about schools in other parts of Canada, though. High school football is definetly not as popular in Canada as it is in the States, though.
You guys ever play any American teams for high school level hockey?

Here in Windsor we have an annual female hockey tournament called Hocktoberfest. Hockey teams from England, Canada, Belgium and the U.S play each other over the weekend and party and shit. It's a blast. I've been fortunate enough to bartend their parties at the restaurant I use to work at and now I work at the hotel team England stays at every year. Their games are fun too. Definitely more exciting than womens Olympic Hockey.

You might have heard of our basketball tournament. I think they made a movie about it. This one isn't even close. Fun little factoid: 9 of the 10 largest high school gymnasiums are in the state of Indiana. They don't call it Hoosier Hysteria for nothing. You haven't seen high school basketball until you've seen it here. Fact.

Not that I know of in Saskatchewan. They probably do that in Ontario, though.

I wish it was Ultimate Surrender though.
Two of the best teams in the country are right on the border with Manitoba and Ontario. I've been to Thunder Bay and Winnipeg for tournies before but it wasn't high school.
minnesota = hockey

In Iowa it's freestyle wrestling. Just placing in the top eight will almost ensure a college scolarship.
It's not the biggest tournement in the state but I did win the Class "A" Mooning state title both junior and senior year.:moon:
Lou Nanne (former North Star and announcer for MN HS state tournament) just said on the broadcast the MN state HS hockey tournament is the biggest high school event in the country! :hatsoff: I must agree.
A few observations this year: They don't announce the cheerleaders and show them in the camera anymore. A travesty!
Of the 10 or so Mr hockey finalists, all are going to be drafted (NHL). Bjugstad is a beast. Future USA hockey olmypian for sure. :hatsoff:
