Eagle boys drop opener in overtime
The season-opener for the Windom Area boys hockey team came down to missed opportunities for the Eagles. The Eagles couldn’t take advantage of a five-on-three power play in the third period, which could have padded a one-goal lead. Instead, Austin killed off the power play, eventually scored the tying goal, then scored on its own power play in overtime for a 4-3 win at the Windom Arena. The Eagles trailed early in the opening period, but battled back to take a 2-1 lead after one.
