Comment on Old Town-Orono dominates Bangor for 4-1 hockey victory

Old Town-Orono proved Wednesday night that it is the favorite to win the seven-team high school hockey playoff pod that includes five schools from Penobscot County and two from Aroostook County. Senior center and captain Tanner Evans scored two goals and added an assist to lead the three-time defending Class B North champs to an impressive 4-1 win over Class A Bangor at Sawyer Arena in Bangor. Senior right wing Zach Needham notched a goal and two assists and junior Blaine Murray also scored for the Black Bears, who improved to 7-1. Garrett Courtney tallied the only goal for Bangor (5-2-1). Old Town-Orono took a huge step in sewing up the top seed for the pod.
