The Lady Cards took the long trip north Friday night to take on the section runner-up, Roseau Rams. The last time the Rams and Cards met was last March for the section 8AA title when the Lady Cards knocked them off for their first class AA state tournament berth. The Cardinals turned in a strong effort to earn a 5-1 victory over the Rams.

The 4 hour bus ride didn’t seem to hurt the Cards as they came out with wheels the first periods and took a 3-0 lead. Senior Hanley Block would lead the charge with 2 of those goals and Senior Peyton Boesl with the other. Lauren Maras would be the lone assist for both of Blocks goals, and Ella Westlund and Kennedy Ellingson grabbing the assists on Boesl’s goal. Westlund would tack on a goal to make it 4-0 in the 2nd with MaKenna Aure and Kennedy Ellingson on the assist. The Rams would get on the board in the 3rd before Aure responded shortly after to get the lead back to 4. Aure was assisted by Westlund. The Lady Cards killed all 5 penalties on the night and Hailee Bailey had a solid game between the pipes with some slick glove saves! Bailey would make 27 of 28 saves on the night for the big section win.

The Lady Cards look to continue this momentum with 3 games next week, first of which is on the road Tuesday to section opponent Sartell.
