The Bottineau U-19 girls’ hockey team went a perfect 3-0 on its three-game road trip last weekend, knocking off Mayport, Grand Forks and Park River.

The Stars kicked off their eastward swing with a 4-1 win at Mayport on Saturday. Katie Kerslake and Erin Severson scored two goals apiece to help lead the Stars to victory.

Later that day, Bottineau visited Grand Forks and downed the Stars’ hosts 6-1 at Purpur Arena. Severson again scored twice, and Kerslake, Jacie Ceglowski, Alexis Kihle and Sonja Gilje all found the back of the Grand Forks net once apiece.

The Stars then finished their trip with a more than comfortable 17-0 rout of Park River on Sunday.

Bottineau (7-2-0) has two home games this weekend. The Stars will kick off the short homestand against Watford City at 6:45 p.m. on Friday night at the Bottineau Community Arena.

The Stars will then welcome Bismarck to town on Sunday. Sunday’s game is set to start at 12:15 p.m.
