Brookfield 5, Otselic Valley 0
BROOKFIELD – In a contest rescheduled from Sept. 13, an own goal started the scoring for Brookfield on its way to a shutout of OV (2-4) Monday.
Jake Cowen's crossing pass was miskicked by an OV defender and into the Vikes' goal 18 minutes in. Derek Beeching scored in the 38th minute putting back a rebound after a Cowen missed shot, and Cowen scored two minutes later for the three-goal advantage.
