No. 3 Wayzata at No. 2 Hill-Murray
7 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 9
At Aldrich Arena, Maplewood


It may be a non-conference, non-section game with not much on the line, but Wayzata at Hill-Murray should still be a whale of a game. The Trojans have won six straight after a slow start and remain stingy defensively under coach Pat O’Leary. Speaking of good coaching, Bill Lechner has the Pioneers in the thick of the state race again, anchored by St. Cloud State commit Mitch Slattery and UM-Duluth commit Joey Anderson.
