20150213_201824As people began to filter in to watch the game the band begins to play. It’s a great Friday night for a hockey game. The Zamboni finishes clearing up the rink and the game begins. The game starts out a little slow for Blaine but it begins to pick up after the 1st penalty of the game made by #12 Meany, Shannon for Cross Checking. Minutes later #10 Alisa Wolens scores for Blaine and the crowd goes wiled. End of the First Period its 1 – 0 Blaine. Second Period Begins and very quickly Centennial Gets a penalty for Cross checking this time #8 Backman, Hannah. Blaine Quickly takes advantage of that and scores their 2nd goal of the game by #9 Sarah Ganley. Later in the 2nd Period  Centennial Scores a goal to try and Tie it up. 2nd Period concludes 2 – 1 Blaine and the 3rd Period Begins. 4 minutes into the Period Blaine’s #36 DeAnna LeMire picks up a penalty and allows Centennial to Equalize The Game still 12:44 remaining.  1:30 Remaining and it looks like this could end in a tie but as the 1 minute mark rolls around Blaine Scores for the 3rd time making the score 3 – 2 Blaine. There are a few more shots on goal by Centennial but as the clock winds down to 0 it becomes apparent that the Blaine Bengals have won and are headed to state.
