A sophomore bound for a Top 10 debut on the upcoming PRZMN 2028 Ranking’s Update, Eden Prairie’s superstar of a multi-sporter Owen Konrad was one of the Breakout Stars of the 2025 prep football season in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, dominating upperclassmen defenses in Class 6A in his debut varsity season and thrilling PRZMN live and in-person in the Eagles throttling of eventual state champion Edina in Week 3 of the regular season. With a dangerous combination of speed, burst, vision, and lethal footwork/elusiveness in the open field on the gridiron, Konrad – to no surprise – is also a potent and, dare I say “elite”, threat on the ice for Eden Prairie’s illustrious and tradition-rich prep hockey team. The kid also possesses some exciting contact balance, physicality, and toughness/effectiveness as a blocker as the Eagles‘ tailback, with a well-rounded game and a ton of home run ability for a underclassman. Konrad has posted eye-popping numbers this season, totaling 42 points off 19 goals and 23 assists in 2025-26, tied for second on the Eagles this winter, but a 4-1 loss to Minnetonka in the Section 2AA section semis last Saturday ended the young sophomore’s season before he got a chance to compete at the X. If you haven’t gotten the message yet, this isn’t your average sophomore.

Yes, another article discussing Eden Prairie’s sophomore sensation Owen Konrad. PRZMN is fresh off seeing this young man live, where he absolutely wowed in a big home win against Classic Lake Conference rival Edina. Like the last two 2028s we broke down, Konrad is an accomplished hockey player for Eden Prairie’s big-time hockey program, so accomplished that he was drafted in the USHL’s Phase l draft’s 15th round after posting 10 points during the Eagles run through postseason play that resulted in a 4th place finish at the state’s Bantam AA state tournament.
The upper tier athleticism more than shows up on the gridiron, as Konrad is a dazzling combination of speed, strength, and quickness with especially impressive foot speed and an effective bag of tools in the open field and when breaking tackles. Konrad can run your butt over, break your ankles with perfectly timed sudden cuts, or blow past you en-route to a touchdown. Varsity football and playmaking seems to come natural to this kid, and it’s always fun to add another high-powered multi-sporter to the PRZMN ranking’s Big Board. As the Eagles current #1 rusher, Konrad has tallied 46 carries for 429 yards and 3 TDs in what is going to be the start to a fantastic prep campaign. Get on the bandwagon now, folks.
