The hometown Hartland High Huskies dropped SVHS of Perth-Andover 7-3 on Monday to move to 3-1 on its 2008-09 Western Conference AA Boys High School Hockey League season

A near-capacity crowd at the Big Freeze was on hand for the highly-spirited match, which was HHS' third win in four starts on its 2008-09 regular season.

The contest was penalty-filled, as both teams were called for numerous infractions from the first whistle.

The squads were tied 1-1 after one before the hometowners notched three in the second frame to lead 4-2 after 40.

Jonathan Cheney led the charge for the winners with two goals, with Lucas McSheffery and Ryan Paul notching a goal and two helpers apiece.

Jared Clark and Jacob Clark each had a goal and an assist, with a single from Sydney Hachey.

Caleb McQuade, Cole Weeks, Shane Walton and Richard Stockford added solo helpers for the winners.
