Ashland, WI – On a beautiful, snowy night in Ashland, WI, the Jacks would fall short in a fantastic game against the Yellowjackets.
While the Yellowjackets took it to the Jacks in the opening minutes of the game, the Lumberjacks' goaltender,
Gennaro Anzevino was up to the task. He came up with some big time saves to keep the score at 1-0 in favor of the Yellowjackets by the end of the first period. Anzevino recorded 50 saves on the night in total.
In the 2nd period, the Jacks were able to get on the board early on. In just over a minute into the action,
Jackson Barrett was able to notch the score up at one a piece. The goal was assisted by
Kyle Pouncy and Kalib Ford. The Yellowjackets would go up a score subsequently, but
Cameron Coutre would answer to get the score leveled at two.
The 3rd period did not go as planned for Northland. The Jacks gave up two goals in the 3rd and would ultimately lose by the score of 4-2.
The two teams will see each other tomorrow night as the Jacks head to Superior for a 7PM contest with the Yellowjackets.
