Morin’s late goal lifts Breck over Hermantown

By JON KRAWCZYNSKI

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Late in the third period of the Class 1A boys state hockey title game, Breck forward Mike Morin thought the Mustangs’ chance at history was slipping away.

Hermantown was dominating the action as the powerful Mustangs have rarely seen all season, and Morin wasn’t sure how things were going to turn around.

‘‘I had that pit at the bottom of my stomach,’’ Morin said. ‘‘I was like, oh man, these guys are pressuring us.’’

Then, with 1:40 to play and the game tied, the puck took a goofy bounce off Morin’s shin pad and past Hermantown goalie Tyler Ampe to lift the Mustangs to a 2-1 victory, making them the first team to repeat as state champions in 16 years.

Morin rushed into the zone and split defenders before Hawks defenseman Jeff Paczynski swiped the puck away, a textbook play in that situation. But the puck ricocheted off Morin’s shin pad and slipped through Ampe’s five-hole.
