Trojans lose tourney opener

The New Prague girls hockey team lost its first round game 5-2 to Rogers in the Black Friday tournament Friday afternoon at the New Prague Area Community Center. Rogers got the game's first goal, but the Trojans tied it on a goal by Hallie Paschke late in the first period. New Prague trailed 3-1 when Emily Culshaw scored. Both Trojan goals were assisted by Shannon Meyer. The Trojans had a number of opportunities to score in the third period, but were stopped cold by the Royals, who scored twice in the last five minutes to put the game away.
