Post Bulletin Sports Podcast

Isaac Trotter breaks down what the Section 1 playoffs will look like. In 9-man football (0:33), Grand Meadow looks like the No. 1 seed, but Lanesboro, Southland, Houston and LeRoy-Ostrander all have the talent to compete. In Section 1A (4:57), it looks like Blooming Prairie's to lose, but Randolph is having a resurgent season. But could COVID affect the Awesome Blossoms' chances? Caledonia owns Section 1AA (7:26), but Chatfield, Triton and Kenyon-Wanamingo are all 3-1 right now. Section 1AAA (8:59) could be the most competitive. Lourdes, Pine Island, Stewartville, Waseca and Plainview-Elgin-Millville are all dangerous. Two Byron/Kasson-Mantorville showdowns could be in the mix. Are they the best two teams in Section 1AAAA (13:33)? In Section 1AAAAA (15:15), Mayo, JM and Century are all trying to muscle up and knock off Owatonna.
