The Mavs and Eagles emptied their tanks before Lakeland scored four minutes into overtime for a 2-1 victory Saturday night at Lakeland in a Classic rivalry game that had the packed arena on the edge of their seats the entire game.
Both tendys were outstanding with the Mavs' Cooper Langley finishing with 52 saves while his Lakeland counterpart Paul Baker had 27 stops for the victory in the 17th Annual Matt Langley Memorial Foundation game. Lakeland wrested the Langley Trophy from Milford, who had won it last year.
The undefeated Eagles' (6-0) Brennan Grant scored with 1:24 left in the second period to stake Lakeland to a 1-0 lead. Milford's Ryan Okragly scored his team leading 6th goal of the season with just over 5 minutes remaining in the third to tie it up and give the short-benched and undermanned Mavs (2-5) life.
The Eagles pressured Milford and keeper Langley in OT before Lakeland's Luke Weinberger banged home a rebound for the victory halfway through the 8 minute session.
It was fittingly 'High School Hockey Day' in Michigan and those in attendance were treated to an awesome night of high school hockey - boisterous student sections, packed stands, spectators wrapped around the glass, huge saves, and both school's student-athletes leaving it all out on the ice sheet while representing their respective schools and communities.
