Sharks split weekend; hand Hounds first loss
The Battlefords AAA Sharks outshot and outplayed the Notre Dame Hounds on Saturday night, but came away empty-handed after allowing the game-winning goal on a 2-on-1 rush with 48 seconds left in regulation.
On Sunday, however, they learned from it, after jumping out to a quick lead and holding on for a 6-4 win.
It was the Hounds first loss of the season in six games played.
“We’re getting close to a 60-minute game,” Sharks head coach Gary Berggren said when asked what the biggest takeaway from the weekend was. “It’s been tough for our group to learn that you need to work for 60 minutes to be successful but a night like tonight, we had a little bit of a lull, but we’re getting close.”
