Albany was down 21 points, then Cohen Habben came in at quarterback

COLD SPRING, Minn. — Albany's senior quarterback Cohen Habben had not taken consistent offensive snaps since getting sidelined in an early-season loss to Pierz. Junior Emmett Rushmeyer stepped up significantly all season long in his absence, but with his thumb hurting and the team in desperate need of an offensive spark, the switch was made back to Habben. "It was unexpected, [but] I was ready," Habben said. "I love Emmett; he's a great quarterback and he had a couple of huge deflections [on defense]." Before the third quarter could even end, Habben led three unanswered scoring drives to get the Huskies back into the game and completed the comeback for a 42-35 win over New London-Spicer in the Section 6AAA Championship.

Friday Finals: Willmar takes the Victory in OT

New Jersey 5 @ New Hampshire 3 - The New Jersey Titans and New Hampshire Jr. Mountain Kings took the ice for an East Division matchup at Delta Dental Arena. New Jersey’s Kane Clark got the afternoon’s scoring started, giving the Titans an early 1-0 lead. The Mountain Kings struck back just half a minute later with a tip-in goal from Kayden Hill. With less than a minute remaining in the opening period, Andrew Metzger picked off the puck while on the penalty kill and took it the length of the ice for a short-handed goal to give the Titans the one goal advantage going into the second period. Metzger struck again, this time on the power play finding the back of the net from a feed by Kayden Hill. But not long after, Jacob Landry brought the Mountain Kings back within one, taking advantage of the two on one opportunity to sneak the puck past the Titans goaltender. The final goal of the period belonged to the Titans’ with Johnny Iwankiw capitalizing on a rebound to give the Titans a 4-2 lead going into the final twenty minutes. The third period began with a Mountain Kings goal, with Talon Schackmann burying the puck from a pass by Joshua Lang. But the game was sealed in favor of the Titans in the final minutes when Dewight Singleton added an empty net goal to give New Jersey the 5-3 victory.
