In the tightest game the Eagles had all year, the Eagles pulled out a 7-6 win over the Lightning in the fourth quarter of the game, bringing the Battle of the Apple trophy home to Apple Valley for the first time since the trophy was made a few years ago.

The Eagles also advanced all the way to the section finals, but suffered a heartbreaking upset to St. Thomas Academy.

The team also beat Eagan, Forest Lake, Henry Sibley, and Park.
