Ramirez made 10 saves in the contest despite allowing two goals. Next up is the No. 5 seed Sussex Hamilton on Thursday. <strong>M Riley Stevens, Sun Prairie, Jr.</strong> The junior was responsible for both of Sun Prairie's goals in a 2-1 win over Middleton. Sun Prairie has a date with Arrowhead coming up in the next round. <strong>F Owen Backus, Elkhorn, So.</strong> Backus had a hat trick in Elkhorn’s 6-0 win over Monona Grove. The sophomore forward is part of a very young and talented Elkhorn core looking to make a run in Division 2. Elkhorn will face Baraboo Thursday. <strong>M/D [player_tooltip player_id="18455" first="Jack" last="Leffel"], Kettle Moraine Lutheran, Sr.</strong> A goal and assist for Leffel in KML’s 2-1 upset over New Berlin West.

Next up is the top seed Wauwatosa East. <strong>F [player_tooltip player_id="18437" first="Denis" last="Krioutchenkov"], Shorewood, Jr.</strong> Scored two more goals this weekend to add to his 48-goal, 11-assist season. Will face Pius XI Catholic next. <strong>M/D Matt Sundarajan, New Belin West, Sr.</strong> A four-assist game for Sundarajan as New Berlin West took down MSOLI. One of the best small school prospects in Wisconsin. <strong>F [player_tooltip player_id="31513" first="Emmett" last="Lawton"], Green Bay Notre Dame, Jr.</strong> A four-goal performance in Round 2 for an outstanding player being overlooked recently. But it gets tougher from here.
