Second Scrimmage v Hopkins, Part 6

Andy P. made a few more good saves.

Matthew made sure to follow up on faceoffs.

We were on the same page.

Up next tonight and continuing through the weekend is the Richfield tournament. We anticipate more exciting hockey action, as well as enriching hockey volunteer opportunities for the parents of players on the home team. Good luck to all the Spartans, skaters and coaches alike.
