This week’s Cup play has been something of a showcase for a number of the players dotting our leader boards. Alex Whelan of Ramsey has been, well, Alex Whelan. Danny Reidel of Wayne Hills has led the Patriots to a Big North Liberty Cup championship matchup with the Rams.
Glen Rock and St. Joseph will butt heads for the third straight time in a Cup final, this one for the Big North Freedom prize. Both teams like to spread the scoring around, so you don’t see a lot of names from those two teams, but watch out for guys like Jack Kinney of the Panthers and Pete Lombardi for the Green Knights.
Is there a goalie who’s going to step up on Friday and steal the thunder? There are certainly candidates. Check out the numbers and see where you might lean.
