Greyhounds senior captain Meirs Moore scored three goals to power his team past Minnetonka 4-2 on Tuesday night at Duluth Heritage Sports Center. Howie / HowieBlog.com
It’s likely that Moore, a 5-foot-9 offensive dynamo, will join Sioux City of the United States Hockey League after the high school season.
His eventual college choice? Minnesota and Penn State are best-bets.
Moore had a natural hat trick — all on shots from the point, on the power-play — to power No. 4-ranked Duluth East to a 4-2 come-from-behind victory over No. 5 Minnetonka on Tuesday night at Duluth Heritage Sports Center. The Greyhounds, who improved to 16-4, trailed 2-0 in the first period.
In other high school hockey games played Tuesday night:
. Duluth Denfeld pounded Eveleth-Gilbert 11-1 (Hunters did not report game statistics).
. Cloquet-Esko-Carlton scored three third-period goals to upset Superior 4-2 in a much-anticipated Lake Superior Conference game at Wessman Arena. Daniel Mikel and Aaron Miller scored for the Spartans.
