When the whistle blew in Mankato East’s Class 2A, Section 2 final win, coach Jerrad Aspelund joined in on the dog pile of hollering players.

Aspelund has been with the team 19 seasons and has been in the section final in over half of those. But Mankato East, the No. 8-ranked team in 2A, hasn’t been to the state tournament since 2012, and hasn’t been able to replicate the magic of its runner-up 2A finish in 2010.

Until now.
