Congratulations to Benster's Irondale High School Knights, whose girl's hockey team is headed to the state tournament following a 2-1 victory over District 621 rival Mounds View 2-1 last night. Mounds View was the #1 seed in Section 5AA, while the Knights were the #6 seed, so it's a bit of an upset. Having said that, the Knights have a more-than-respectable record of 19-8-1 coming into the tournament.
Irondale gets to find out how good they are right off the bat, as they've drawn the #1 overall seed in the tournament, the Minnetonka Skippers. Game time is 6 p.m. on Thursday at the Xcel Energy Center.
