TIGERS

Though barely into the spring season, the Tigers have already packed it with excitement. Their season-opener ended in 14-13 overtime victory over South Burlington on Thursday, April 16, in South Burlington.

Senior Ben DeBisschop scored almost half of the Tigers’ goals, with what amounts to two hat tricks, and assisted his teammates twice. The co-captain’s six goals included the final OT goal needed to lift MUHS above the Wolves.

Tiger junior Brady Lloyd and senior co-captain Logan McNulty each also had a hat trick and one assist. Sophomore goalie Tanner English had 13 saves.

The Tigers played a second away game at Rice on Saturday, April 18, but didn’t have the same outcome. MUHS fell short by just two goals, 10-8.

Junior Rowdy Malcom and sophomore Evan Northrup both scored twice, and Northrup had an assist. McNulty, DeBisschop and Lloyd each had a goal and an assist, and freshman Hartley Littlefield scored once. English accumulated eight saves.

The Tigers’ Tuesday home-opener vs. CVU was postponed due to Fucilie Field being too wet.

MUHS’s next game is scheduled for Saturday, April 25, at 11 a.m. on BFA St. Albans’ turf.
