MOSINEE – The Wausau West boys hockey team came back from an early one-goal deficit to defeat Mosinee 2-1 in a Marathon Cup game Saturday night at the Mosinee City Recreation Center.
Elliot Yirkovsky scored 2:13 into the game to give Mosinee a quick 1-0 lead, but the Warriors held them scoreless the rest of the way.
Chase Crass tied it on a power-play goal at the 5:02 mark of the first period and added the game-winner 6:17 into the third for the Warriors (5-3).
Cooper DePuydt assisted on both of Crass’s goals and Parks Guenther made 25 saves in goal for Wausau West.
