SLP Orioles End Regular Season With Win Over Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars

Saturday afternoon was Senior Day for the St. Louis Park Orioles boys hockey team and one of the 10 seniors honored before the game Avery Pittman showed veteran leadership as he scored two goals to help beat the Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars 5-1 at The Rec Center. 

The Jaguars would reach the net on their first shot of the game when Tyler Noble scored from the center slot.  Jefferson goalie Basil Kamsheh was tested early as he faced three consecutive St. Louis Park shots and he saved all three.  The Orioles would tie the game on Pittman's rebound goal with ;18.4 to go in the period. 

St. Louis Park would vault into the lead with two second period goals.  The first came when Drew Boyum rebounded Stanley Regguinti's shot and it crossed the goal line to put them ahead 2-1.  The margin would increase to two while Jacob Favour was serving a two minute slashing penalty.  Javk Wandmacher fed Jacob Johnson in the top of the left slot faceoff circle and he would score the short handed goal. 

In the third period, the Orioles added two goals to their ledger.  Boyum would pass to Wandmacher and his shot barely crossed the goal line putting St. Louis Park ahead by three.  Pittman would conclude the scoring with his second unassisted goal, firing a shot from the right side of Kamsheh. 

The Orioles ended their regular season with a record of 16-9 and open Section 6AA tournament play next Thursday, February 20.  The Jaguars wrap up the regular season with a record of 9-16 and will also be in action on the 20th in the Section 3AA tournament.
