Chelsea Hockey Picks Up Third Straight Win

A late third period goal by Jack Capper lifted the Chelsea hockey team to a 3-2 win over Jackson United Monday night.

Capper lifted a shot over the shoulder of the Jackson goaltender into the top of the net with 5:40 left to break a 2-2 tie and send the Bulldogs to the victory.

Brendan Westcott put Chelsea on top at the 10 minute mark of the first when he poked the puck past a sprawling Viking goalie and into the net for a 1-0 lead.

Jackson answered to tie the game with 5:26 left in the first.

Drew Sherwood found the net in the second to put Chelsea up 2-1 and it stayed that way until the third.

The Vikings scored on the powerplay with 16:12 left in the third, setting up Capper's heroics.

Keegan Montgomery recorded a pair of assists for the Bulldogs, while Pedro Lopez, Tyler Valik, and Michael Jones added one assist each.

Harrison Lantis made 14 saves in net for the Bulldogs.
