Ely scoring drought continues in latest losses

Posted

INTERNATIONAL FALLS— Ely’s scoring drought continued this week as the Wolves fell 8-0 to the Broncos here on Tuesday, managing just 11 shots on goal on the night. The Wolves have scored a combined total of just five goals in the past seven games, all losing efforts.
The Wolves, who had shown potential in racking up a 3-4 record in the early season, have hit hard times since their last victory, back on Dec. 21.
Playing in Siren, Wis., this past Saturday, Ely was buried by the Blizzard 5-1. The Wolves fell behind early in the first quarter and watched the Blizzard pile up four on the scoreboard until late in the third quarter when Hunter Halbakken lit the lamp at the 12:49 mark. The Blizzard added insurance less than two minutes later to wrap up scoring for the day.
The Wolves will try to get back on track during an extended home stand on Friday when they host Lake of the Woods. They’ll be back in action Saturday against Wadena in a 2 p.m. start and will host Proctor on Tuesday night.
