2nd and 3rd Game at State

Game 2 of the State High School Hockey Tournament for our team was held at Mariucci Arena at the University of Minnesota on Friday.

This game was a must win- or we would be going home.

And we won...with only 8 shots!! We won 2-1!!

The parents met the boys in the hallway outside the locker room and clapped and cheered for each boy as they walked through! So exciting that there would be a game 3!

My favorite line from the day came from a staff worker at Mariucci.
He said; "I love seeing a game where a team doesn't waste any shots!"
Ha! That totally summed up this game!

The boys headed back to their hotel in St. Paul for another night of fun, watching games at the Excel and preparing for their next game.

Game 3 was Saturday, and again was played at Mariucci.
