In the final game of the Granite City Classic, the Prairie Centre Area North Stars boys' hockey team was cooled off in a 4-2 loss to Sauk Rapids-Rice after winning their previous six outings.
After both teams battled to a 1-1 tie through two periods, the Storm erupted for three goals in the final period to pick up the win. Prairie Centre's six-game winning streak is the longest the program has enjoyed since the merging of the Long Prairie and Sauk Centre/Melrose programs earlier in the 2000s.
Now 6-4, the North Stars next take on Section 6A rival Little Falls (7-6) on Tuesday, Jan. 3 in Little Falls. The Flyers have won four games in a row, including two over Top 20 Class 1A schools.
An update on Fusion boys' swimming and diving, the Sauk Centre/Melrose team placed third at the five-team Brainerd Invitational on Thursday. Team scores were: Brainerd 663, Monticello 558, Sauk Centre/Melrose 382, Perham 314, Bemidji 203.
