Hockey roundup
Alec Hajduvkovich scored two goals and Brooks Poe had the other in Lathrop’s win over Palmer.
Taylor Munson assisted both of Hajdukovich’s goals — the first came at 1:34 of the first period and the second at 7:34 of the second. Poe’s insurance goal, set up by an assist from Kyle Olson, came late in the second period.
“It was a little ugly, but it was a good win coming off the holiday break,” Lathrop assistant coach Charlie Parr said. “We got the win, and that’s the most important thing.”
Goalie Trevor Evans got the win for Lathrop with a 21-save performance. Jonas Naegele had 22 saves for Palmer.
North Pole came out strong and kept on going in its Mid Alaska Conference win over Houston.
Jared Linnell, Vance Bridgman, Matt Sanford and Hank Parra all had hat tricks for the Patriots. DJ Carnley registered a six-point night with a goal and five assists.
Phoenix Copley got the win in goal for the Patriots. They forgot to mention Tyler's goal and his assist....plus NP had ten different players with points in that first game!

Great job North Pole!
Not only was Thursday's game awesome, so was Friday's and Saturday afternoon's game as well. Tyler in particular skated incredibly fast and his stops and passes were accurate and strong. He was a team member who seemed to be everywhere. We cheered ourselves horse! Tyler had quite a fan club of Aunt Polly, Uncle TJ, Gramps and Grammy as well as several people in the stands. The highlight for me personally was when he gave me a hug at the end of Saturday's game. He is as good as gold! - Still!
