Defending Class 1A state champion Minneota seemed to welcome Parkers Prairie to the latter program’s first Class 1A state tournament semifinal at U.S. Bank Stadium.

Shortly after figuratively extending its right hand to greet the upstart Panthers, however, the Vikings let go and the joke was on . Minneota clobbered Parkers Prairie early and often and rolled to a 45-0 victory, remaining undefeated (12-0). The Vikings advance to face Springfield for the third consecutive time in the Class 1A Prep Bowl, this one set for 10 a.m. Friday at U.S. Bank Stadium.

“We have had a couple games lately where we started fast but got away from executing like we want to,” Minneota coach Chad Johnston said. “Today, we set the tempo right away and we pretty much stuck with it.”
