Willmar stunned by Alex onslaught

Special from Willmar Tribune
WILLMAR — The Alexandria Cardinals girls hockey team rolled over Willmar 10-0 on Thursday night at the Civic Center.
The two-time defending Central Lakes Conferenc champions have loads of firepower. Headlined by forwards Abby Williams, Kathryn DelZoppo, defenseman Ashley Holmes and goalie Danielle Justice, the Alexandria Cardinals are 30-2-4 over the last three years in CLC games.
Williams and Holmes will play Division I hockey at Minnesota State, Mankato, and the University of North Dakota, respectively, while Justice and DelZoppo are headed to Division III colleges.
Willmar couldn’t keep pace with the visitors as the Alexandria forwards declared open season on Willmar goalie Amanda Croonquist.
Williams had two goals and three assists, bringing her point total to 20.
Willmar did manage 22 shots on Justice, who recorded the third shutout for Alexandria which has given up just five goals in eight games.
