Team South Dakota 14U Girls would score four third period goals in a 6-1 win over Mountain Selects, Colorado on Wednesday to open the Tier II USA Hockey National Tournament.
Sioux Falls’ Halle Watson would score twice while Oahe’s Dakota McEntaffer would score to make it 4-1 in the third period. Lucy Nelson, Taylor Sorben and Riya Brenner would also get a goal each in the opening game of the tournament. It was a big opening game win for Team SD who scored the most goals in its pool. However, the competition will get stiff as they will face the other two 1-0 teams in the final two games of the pool. Brookings’ Avery Dentlinger made 18 saves on 19 shots between the pipes.
Team South Dakota will play at 4:00 Central Time against Massena River Queens on Thursday.
