OHS girls' hockey

Holiday tournament action continued Wednesday. Owatonna High School wrestler Brandon Moen captured first place at the Rumble on the Red. OHS boys basketball won their home tournament.

What goes up must come down. A puck that seemed to deflect off the ceiling proved to be the game winner for Duluth Denfeld in a 4-3 victory over the Owatonna boys Tuesday.
