Blaise Andries, a 6-foot-6, 295-pound junior offensive tackle from Marshall (MN) High and arguably the state’s top player in the 2017 class, committed to Minnesota Saturday.
Andries helped lead the Tigers to a 9-2 mark this past season, losing to Stewartville 35-7 in the first round of the Class AAAA state tournament. They finished 8-1 in 2014, being upset by Waseca in the first round of the playoffs after being them 35-6 three weeks before
