Roseville Claims 6A Title

Roseville football finished its regular season with a subdistrict title on Friday night.

The Raiders defeated Coon Rapids 24-14 to win the Metro Maroon crown. This marked the program's best record since 2017. The team finished with a 4-4 mark. Senior quarterback Chase Browning led the offense with three touchdown passes and 162 passing yards. He described the victory as an amazing feeling that validated the team's hard work.

Centennial dominated Anoka 38-6 in a separate contest. The win likely guarantees the Cougars a No. 3 seed in the Class 6A playoffs. Anoka was held to single digits for the first time this season.

Mounds View secured the Metro East title with a 22-16 win over White Bear Lake. The Mustangs trailed by two points late in the game. Tanner Jude scored on a one-yard run with 65 seconds remaining. A two-point conversion extended the lead to six. Preston Johnson intercepted the next White Bear Lake pass to end the game. The defense limited Wyatt Stachowiak to six completions on 24 attempts.

East Ridge beat rival Woodbury 42-31 to close its season. Logan Tretter rushed for two touchdowns. Elias Mather returned an interception for a score in the final minutes.

Forest Lake running back Mack Jurkovich ran for 245 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-13 win over Stillwater. The result locks in a No. 2 seed for the Rangers. Jurkovich finished the season with 1,600 rushing yards. He has committed to play at St. Thomas.

Lakeville South completed the night with a dramatic 17-14 upset of Rosemount. Sophomore kicker Dylan Nelson hit a 36-yard field goal with one second left. The win complicates the south metro seeding picture for the playoffs. Park also won 18-10 over Eastview, with receiver Manny Vargas scoring twice.
