High School
In high school hockey last night…
- Nate Londo scored two goals in the final minute, as Calumet doubled up Gabriel Richard 4-2. Luke Hamlin opened the scoring for the Copper Kings, but the Pioneers responded with a pair of goals, and took a 2-1 lead while outshooting Calumet 18-7 in the first period. That was all they got, as the Kings held them to just nine shots for the rest of the game. Brady Boberg tied the score midway through the second period. Londo’s game-winner game with just 47 seconds left in regulation, and the insurance tally was an empty-netter.
