Thunder put Marquette on ice

MARINETTE — The M&M Thunder high school hockey team scored a pair of wins over Marquette at the REC Center on Sunday. The Thunder took game one 7-5 and game two by a score of 9-8. While Wesley Baty, a senior at Peshtigo High School, set the tone by scoring four goals and assisting on two others, the Thunder showed off some young talent with four freshmen scoring their first high school goals and two goalies recording their first high school victories. “We have a young team, and I thought that those young players stepped up where they needed to,” first year head coach Kyle Lucas said. “Our veterans stepped up as well. They grinded the entire time, never let off the gas.” Connor Radtke started the scoring in game one, taking advantage of a 5-on-3 situation with assists from Baty and Owen Haley. Carter Edrman, a freshman at St. Thomas Aquinas Academy, followed with his first career goal to make it 2-0. Marquette scored a pair of goals late in the first to reach the first intermission tied 2-2. Baty, Cael Schmidt (a freshman at Peshtigo) and Erdman all scored in the second period, and the Thunder led 5-4
