3-2 VICTORY. The Phoenix breaks the tie by scoring one more point with 4.5 minutes remaining during over-time. Oxborough scored and helped the team took a 3:2 victory home. Just being able to come back from that and score is really exciting. The team just felt a lot of energy after, playing a lot of music in the locker room which was super fun, Meza said.

READY TO GAME. One-by-one, individuals jumped over the ledge of the player bench. On Tuesday night, the Co-op girls hockey team Metro-South Phoenix played at the Drake Arena against the Eagan Wildcats. "It's really exciting to have them here instead of at Burnsville, because we only get to see them a few times a year," athletic trainer Anne Hutchins said.
