The Luverne Cardinals girls’ hockey team traveled to Blaine Dec. 26-28 to play in the 2022 Herb Brooks Holiday Classic.
Last year the Cardinals were crowned tournament champions in the silver division, beating University of Milwaukee 8-1, Moose Lake 6-3 and Marshall 5-1.
This year LHS returned to the tournament but played in a bracket above, the gold division.
This division includes teams from Delano, Mankato East, Marshall, Duluth, River Lakes, Mounds View/Irondale and Dodge County.
The Cardinals played tough against some larger metro teams, placing fourth overall in the tournament with a record of 1-2.
“The other teams made us pay for our mistakes and ultimately cost a couple of losses,” said head coach Tony Sandbulte.
 
Game 1 – Dec. 26
Luverne 2, River Lakes 0
In the first game, Luverne faced River Lakes, once again having recently beat them 3-1 at home Saturday, Dec. 17.
This game would be little tighter.
Kamryn Van Batavia scored early in the first period at 4:01. The goal was a historic one, her 400th career point.
This puts Van Batavia near the top three all-time career points scorers in Minnesota girls’ hockey.
At the end of the first period the Cardinals led 1-0.
The second period would see no goals.
In the third period Luverne found the net once again. Tenley Behr scored at 16:43 with an assist by Ella Apel and closed out the game with a 2-0 win for Luverne.
Goaltender Mallory Von Tersch played a great game, stopping 20 shots on goal from River Lakes.
River Lakes goalie stopped 26 of 28 shots from Luverne.
 
Game 2 – Dec. 27
Mounds View-Irondale 3, Luverne 2
In the second round Luverne skated against a strong Mounds View-Irondale team.
Once again Kamryn Van Batavia started the scoring off in the first period at 3:37 with an assist from Payton Behr.
Only 57 seconds into the second period, Van Batavia scored again.
Mounds View-Irondale answered with two goals of their own at 8:34 and 9:58, closing the second period tied at two goals apiece.
In the third period Mounds View/Irondale made a heartbreaker goal at 15:07, giving them a 3-2 win over Luverne.
 
Game 3 – Dec. 28
Mankato East 2, Luverne 1
Game three pitted Luverne against Mankato East for third place in the tournament.
The first period would decide the game.
Mankato East scored first at 6:03 in the first period.
Luverne tied it up with a goal from Ellie Van Batavia at 10:27.
Mankato East scored once again at 13:04, making the score 2-1 at the end of the first period.
The second and third periods had no scoring from either team.
Mankato East won the game 2-1 and took home third place.
 
The Cardinals girls’ hockey team is now 9-3 for the season and ranked ninth overall in Class 1A.
Luverne is scheduled to host Fairmont Tuesday, Jan. 3, and travel to Albert Lea Tuesday, Jan. 10.

The Luverne girls’ basketball team closed the year on the road with a win over conference rivals Jackson County Central 76-39.
The game was rescheduled from Dec. 13, due to weather.
The Cardinals took control from the beginning and didn’t look back.
“We were able to really control the game with our defense,” head coach TJ Newgard said.
Luverne grabbed 29 defensive rebounds, made 16 steals, and blocked five shots to disrupt JCC from gaining any type of momentum.
Leading the charge was Elizabeth Wagner with 27 points, 16 rebounds, four assists, two deflections and four steals.
“We didn't have Emma Beyer so other girls had to play bigger roles,” Newgard said.
One of those players was Sarah Stegenga.
“Sarah shot the ball extremely well, making four threes,” Newgard said. 
Stegenga posted 16 points and two steals in the game.
Another player to step in was Lauren Hansen. “Lauren started the game and did some positive things,” Newgard said.
Hansen contributed four rebounds, three assists and two steals.
Defensively Christina Wagner was dominant under the net against the Huskies.
Wagner had four rebounds, two deflections, five steals and three blocked shots.
Kira John posted 12 points, three rebounds and one blocked shot.
“Dennie Sandbulte came in and did some really good things especially on the offensive end,” Newgard said. 
Sandbulte contributed seven points and two rebounds.
Luverne will start the new year taking on two conference foes. They will travel to Windom Tuesday, Jan. 3, and then host Marshall Friday, Jan. 6.

The Minneota Vikings boys’ basketball team scored 76 points while holding the visiting Hills-Beaver Creek Patriots to 68 on Friday, Dec. 30.
“Following another slow start, we played well again in stretches,” said head coach Kale Wiertzema.
“It’s difficult to win giving up 12 points on second chances and 13 points in transition.”
Minneota led by as much as 18 points in the game, but H-BC kept grinding to stay in the game.
The Patriots found themselves down 41-27 after the first half.
In the second half H-BC made some adjustments, and the Patriots were able to grab more rebounds, which limited the Vikings’ scoring chances.
The Patriots outscored Minneota in the second half 41-35, but it was not enough to erase the deficit they put themselves in.
“One major bright spot was our 19 assists, eight coming from Brayden Metzger,” Wiertzema said.
Metzger posted two steals, four rebounds and seven points.
Beau Bakken scored 18 points for the Patriots while grabbing nine rebounds and three steals.
Brock Harnack contributed 17 points, one rebound, one steal and two assists.
Sawyer Bush sank 12 points, snatched five rebounds and was credited with two assists.
The Patriots are scheduled to travel to Elkton-Lake Benton Tuesday, Jan.3, and then Murray County Central Friday, Jan. 6.
H-BC will play a make-up game, postponed from Dec. 13, against Red Rock Central at home Saturday, Jan. 7.

We are headed into a new year, and 2023 is an opportunity for us to sing a new song.
In Psalm 98, God encourages us to sing a new song.  In other words, look forward to what is coming instead of looking back at where you have been.
I wonder how many songs have been sung in the history of the world. There is no exact number, but the ones that can be counted number somewhere in the trillions.  That is a lot of songs. Even today musicians all around the world are hard at work writing and creating new songs.
Since God is inviting us all to sing a new song, I want to invite us all to accept this challenge this coming year. This means that there are a couple of questions we need to answer as we prepare to sing a new song.
The first: What are we planning to sing about? Every good song tells some story, and it invites people into a shared experience. What story is our new song going to tell? Hopefully we will sing of God’s glory. I think it would be wonderful to honor His faithfulness. Our new song definitely should point to God’s saving grace.
Let’s not stop here. There needs to be more to this new song. I hope our new song will be about our community and our mission to follow Jesus. I hope this coming year our new song will tell the story of God’s amazing love.
Let’s not forget to sing about how God has welcomed in everyone that our world has rejected. These are people like me and people like you. If we have found a home and a purpose in living for Jesus, so can they.
Second, what will this new song we sing sound like?  My hope is that it is a joyful song. It should be fun to sing.
Maybe it should be a song that we can dance to. Remember even King David danced before the Lord.
It needs to be catchy and easy to sing along with. Not everyone who likes to sing is a professional singer. This means that our song needs to have a sound that welcomes all people to sing along.
Definitely our song needs to be one of those that tends to stick in people’s minds and hearts. I guess that means that our new song needs to have an impact on people.
We live in a world full of hurting people who need to hear the clear and life-changing message about God’s love. They also need to experience the love of God firsthand. So let’s not make the mistake of trying to sing our new song alone or too quietly, otherwise nobody will join us as we sing.
Sing to the Lord a new song; shout for joy to the Lord all the earth.

The Luverne Cardinals boys’ hockey team participated in the Rochester Kiwanis Hockey Festival Dec. 28-30, finishing with a 1-2 record.
Other teams invited were Albert Lea, Dodge County, host Rochester Lourdes, Bloomington Kennedy and Windom.
Luverne faced some very good teams in the tournament but hurt their chances in the last two games with several penalties.
 
Game 1 – Dec. 28
Luverne 6, Rochester 1
In the first game Luverne played Rochester, a team they beat a few weeks ago 8-0.
This contest was a little closer, but the Cardinals prevailed 6-1.
In the first period Luverne scored twice. The first goal was made by Elliot Domagala at 6:42, assisted by Ethan Langseth.
The second goal came at 8:40 by Maddux Domagala, assisted by Brady Bork.
Luverne led after the first period 2-0.
In the second period the Cards scored another three goals.
At 3:42 Brock Behrend beat the Rochester goalie, assisted by Maddux Domagala.
At 6:37 Elliot Domagala got his second goal on a power play assisted by Owen Sudenga.

Game 2 – Dec. 29
Dodge County 5, Luverne 1
Luverne played Class 1AA Dodge County in the second game.
The Cardinals had their hands full and didn’t help themselves with four penalties in the game.
Dodge County only scored on one power play, but trying to kill eight minutes with one man down didn’t help Luverne’s chances.
 The first period saw only one goal, from Dodge County, at 1:46.
Dodge County would score four more goals to extend their lead to 5-0 after the second period.
Alexander Schlosser denied Dodge County the shutout in the third period. Schlosser scored at 14:32 with an assist by Henry Hartquist.
Shots on goal favored Dodge County 28-21.
 
Game 3 – Dec. 30

The Cardinals committed six penalties in the game for a total of 15 minutes of power play time for Albert Lea.
Albert Lea had three penalties for a total of six minutes.
The Tigers capitalized on four of the six power plays to help lead them to the win.
In the first period, Albert Lea struck first, scoring on a power play. The period ended 1-0 in their favor.
In the second period Luverne started a drive scoring three goals and the Tigers netted one goal.
Scoring for Luverne, Patrick Kroski beat the Tigers goalie at 4:35, short-handed assisted by Brock Behrend.
Maddux Domagala scored at 12:33 assisted by Henry Hartquist and Behrend.
Blaik Bork finished the drive by scoring a goal at 13:02, assisted by Elliot Domagala.
The Cardinals led the Tigers at the end of the second period 3-2.
The third period was all Tigers, scoring four goals. Three came on Luverne penalties, and the last on a Luverne empty net.
Cardinal goalie Tyler Arends stopped 32 of Albert Lea’s 38 shots.
Luverne had 32 shots on goal against the Tiger goaltender.
 
Luverne is scheduled to travel to the Martin County Arena to take on Fairmont Tuesday, Jan.3
