Prior Lake at Lakeville North
3 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 18

First place in the South Suburban Conference standings could be on the line when Lakeville North hosts Prior Lake. Each has a league game prior to Saturday's meeting, and if both win, the Panthers will have a one-point lead on the second-place Lakers.

Prior Lake ended a five-game winning streak with a 4-1 home loss to Holy Family Catholic late last week. Despite the setback, the No. 15-2A Lakers (14-9-0, 12-3-0) are playing their best hockey behind an offense that sparked recent wins over No. 19-2A Lakeville South (3-2) and No. 16-2A Burnsville (3-1).

Sophomore forward Jackson Jutting (9-16-25) and senior Kevin Fellows (12-12-24) enter the week as Prior Lake's top scorers. 

Lakeville North (17-4-2, 12-2-1) has won two straight after falling at home to Holy Family Catholic 3-0 on Feb. 2, and the No. 6-2A Panthers will be looking for sweep of the Lakers on Saturday. Lakeville North netted a power-play goal in overtime to secure a 3-2 win in the last meeting with Prior Lake.

Henry Enebak (18-26-44) and Blake Brandt (21-23-44) lead a group of six Panthers averaging more than a point per game.
