We're getting closer and closer to our rankings update as well as Preseason All-State teams, and before we start publishing those heavy hitters I wanted to continue with some breakdowns of Minnesota's bigger cities and highlight the talent embedded within them. Since I began with Minneapolis it's only right to finish out the Twin Cities with the 651, so I checked out as much film as I could from the public and private schools in St. Paul and put together the Preseason All-St. Paul team with every position group on offense and defense represented. I was very excited by some of the new names I discovered, and I was also pleasantly surprised to discover that <em>CDH </em>did not have a stranglehold on the talent in the 651 and <em>Harding </em>and <em>Como Park </em>are in the midst of a serious turnaround and have some legit prospects on their squads. Without anymore delay let's get into it! Please enjoy the 2021 Preseason All-St. Paul Team presented by <em>PrepRedzoneMN</em>!
