Becker-Big Lake and Mora/Milaca are chasing league leader Pine City in the Two Rivers Conference standings, but maybe more important, they're fighting for position in a tough Class 1A, Section 5.
Becker-Big Lake is sixth in section standings, while Mora/Milaca is fourth — meaning both are jockeying to get at least one home playoff game.
Corbin Kollar leads the Eagles (8-7-1, 3-3-0) with 16 goals, but the team’s scoring comes from a number of sources — six players have at least four goals and 10 have seven or more points.
When these teams first met on Dec. 4, Becker-Big Lake won 4-1. With an offense averaging 4.26 goals per game, the Mustangs (10-4, 4-1) will look to their leaders to even the season series.
Mora/Milaca’s Gavin Orr is one of nine 20-goal scorers in the state (fourth with 25), and leads a group of six Mustangs with 10 or more points.
