Carter McKee and Spencer Cranley each recorded a hat trick to help pace the NDSS Golden Hawks boys’ hockey team to an 11-1 victory over the Ernestown Eagles Wednesday at the SPC.
The victory made for a fine way for the Hawks to kick off the KASSAA season.
Luke Jarmin got the scoring started for the Hawks with a wrist shot that found the back of the net early in the first.
Ethan Boutillier doubled the lead after spinning around an Eagles defender and skating in alone to score. Cranley picked up his first of the game by converting on a juicy rebound in front of the net to build a 3-0 lead.
