The Austin boys hockey team won its second straight contest when it beat St. Paul Highland Park (2-8 overall) in the Waseca tournament Tuesday.

Four different players scored goals for the Packers (2-9-1 overall) as they held a 60-13 shot advantage. Noah Bawek picked up his first varsity win in net with 11 saves.

“We got a lot of shots and made a lot of scoring chances,” Austin head coach Erik LaRock said. “It would’ve been nice to put a few more pucks in the net, but I’m happy with the way we played and the way we moved the puck around.”
