Making the trip out to Apple Valley, the boys hockey team defeated the Apple Valley Eagles by a score of 4-0.

Led by senior captain Josh Kuehmichel’s first shutout of the season and senior Austin Fisher’s one goal and two assists, the Royals cruised to their third victory in a row to start the season.

The Royals came into the game shorthanded after losing seniors Jonah Shoemaker-Gagnon and Josh Laven and junior Jack Sweeney to injury but still had enough depth to pull away with a two goal third period.
