North Stars wrap weekend trip with 5-2 loss to Hounds
The Battlefords North Stars wrapped up their final road swing of the regular season Sunday night in Wilcox, falling 5-2 to the Notre Dame Hounds to close out the weekend trip at 0-3.
Much like the two nights prior, Sunday’s game opened with a pair of quick goals-against coming early in the opening minutes. Hounds leading scorer, Cole Wirun opened the scoring – and promtly added another just 32 seconds later – to give his team an early 2-0 lead just five minutes into the game on Notre Dame’s opening four shots.
Elijah Anderson answered back later in the frame to make it a 2-1 game with his ninth of the season, and second in a Stars’ uniform, though trailing by a single at the end of the first is as close as the Battlefords would come.
In the second, Hounds’ forwards Paul Bloomer and Van Eger added to the lead on back-to-back power play goals to stretch the lead to 4-1, heading into the third.
