Owatonna Girls Soccer Earns Top Seed for Playoffs
After sweeping the Lakeville teams and Farmington this fall, the Owatonna girls soccer team has the top seed for the Section 1AA playoffs. The Huskies (13-3) will host New Prague at 7PM Tuesday October 10 at the Lincoln Soccer Complex in Owatonna. The teams did not meet during the regular season. Semifinals are Thursday. OHS is seeking its first-ever state tournament berth in girls soccer. The Huskies are on a nine-game winning streak, with seven of those wins by shutout.
The Owatonna boys (8-6-2) are the defending section champs and have won the title three times over the last five seasons. However they must go on the road Tuesday as the No. 5 seed and will face No. 4 Farmington Tuesday at 7PM. The teams played to a 1-1 tie in a season-opening match August 24. Rochester Mayo is the top seed in Section 1AA.
