After a scoreless first period between Alexandria and Northern Lake, the game turned out to be anything but a defensive battle as both offenses went into high gear during the second period.  Peyton Doty got things going for the Cardinals as he scored back to back goals early in the second to give Alexandria the advantage.  Alexandria would build the lead to 3-0 when Josiah Gronholz scored his first goal of the day.  Caiden Kjelstom gave the Lightning hope when he scored a pretty backhand goal and after two periods Alexandria was up 3-1.

Alexandria squashed the Lightning hopes of a rally as Josiah Gronholz recorded his second goal of the day early in the third.  Spencer Olson would complete the Alexandria scoring and finish off the Lightning as the Cardinals advanced with a 5-1 win.

Alex and Little Falls play Sunday for seeding to Regionals.

After a scoreless first period between Fergus Falls and Wadena, the Otters took out their frustrations on Wadena scoring five second- period goals and then two in the third to skate past Wadena and stay alive.  The 7-0 win earned them an opportunity to face Northern Lakes Sunday morning. 

Caiden Kjelstrom gave the Lightning the start they needed as he tallied twice in the first period and after one period the Lightning led Detroit Lakes 3-0.  The Lakers would not go quietly though as two second-period goals cut the Lighting lead to 3-2 after two periods.  Hunter Nybakken scored in the third for the Lightning sealing the Lakers fate and setting up a Sunday match-up with Fergus Falls and a trip to Detroit Lakes for regions on the line.
