2020 OUTLOOK:
Minnesota River Conference: Belle Plaine, Le Sueur/Henderson and Jordan look to be strong this spring. Our goal is to play teams close, and break the winless cycle this spring. Section 4A: Randolph, last year’s Section 4A Tournament winner graduated a number of outstanding players, so it looks as though the opportunity exists for someone else to take that top spot. Goodhue finished in second place and had numerous players back, but moved up to AA this year. Returning all but one starter, we hope to make a run at the Section title.” Head Coach Dave Lane
