<strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">Trey Toner</span></strong> <span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">(6'5, 240) is one of the nastiest and most devastating run blocking TE's in the state of Minnesota that has been thriving on <em>Spring Lake Park's </em>dominant triple option offense.

He is also a 3X USA National Team captain and after covering the game against <em>Irondale</em> for <em>Northstar Football News </em><strong>Toner </strong>was gracious enough to answer a few questions to give our readers some "Insider Info" about <em>Spring Lake Park </em>and their upcoming section 5AAAAA final against <em>Robbinsdale Cooper </em>Friday night.</span>

<strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">Toner</span></strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">: "It's always a physical game when you play a team like <em>Irondale. </em>They have some really good players who give us great fits. It always comes down to who wants it more, who lifts harder in the offseason, and who has the determination to win. I recorded 13 pancakes this game, but I was really shooting for 15. Next week vs. <em>Cooper </em>I'll be looking to hit that magic #15!</span>

<strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">Toner</span></strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">: "Our preparation for <em>Irondale </em>was key!

<strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">Toner</span></strong><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif">: "Nothing beats playoff football in Minnesota. We are all hoping for a snow game! But on a serious note it;s my last year playing high school football with the guys I've grown up playing with. It means a lot to me. Many of my teammates aren't fortunate enough to play football at the next level so I feel it's my responsibility to give everything I have every play for them. That's the vibe we carry with us!"</span>
