The Northview icers claimed their 3rd NHC win in a row this past Friday night with a 3 to 1 win over St. Francis. The win coupled by a St. Johns loss and tie has the Cats in position to control their own destiny for a league title. Northview has 3 games remaining and must win out against Southview, B.G. and the Johnies for the title.
On Friday night Northview jumped on top of the Knights on a first period goal from Shane Wheatley. His centering pass deflected home for the early lead. Northview gave up the tying goal off a short handed effort by the Knights at the beginning of the 2nd period. The game remained tied until the 3rd period when a Sophomore connection gave the Cats the game-winner. Tyler Harding scooped up a loose puck just inside of the Frannies zone and found fellow Sophomore Nolan Culver with a nice back door pass and goal. Kyle Hymore continued his bid for a league scoring title with a empty net goal to seal it for the Cats. Freshmen Austin Gryca continued his recent hot play in stopping 23 shots for the win.
Northview will go after the Mayor’s cup this Saturday against SV at Tam-o- shanter before heading down to BG for a Sunday afternoon affair with the Bobcats. Congratulations Cats and Good luck!
