But both welcomed some non-playoff-related good news on Monday.
One player from each team, Isabelle Ferm for the girls and Jared Wolt for the boys, received notice they have been invited to the Minnesota State High School Coaches Association state banquet scheduled for October 20 in St. Paul.
At the banquet held in conjunction with the Class A and Class AA state tournaments the invitees will receive either all-state or all-state honorable mention distinction.
Ferm, a first-team all-stater last season, had led a Tiger defense that has given up only 14 goals in 18 games this season.
Wolt, who received all-Missota Conference honorable mention recognition as a junior, leads the Tigers in scoring his senior season with 14 goals, including the game-winner in Saturday's 1-0 section semifinal win over Lakeville North.
