The Presque Isle hockey team holds the No. 4 position in the Class B North Heal Point standings entering the Tuesday, Feb. 5 make-up road match against Kennebec in Waterville.
On Saturday, the Wildcats suffered a close loss to the third-ranked Camden Hills Windjammers at the Mid-Coast Recreation Center in Rockport.
PI fell behind 2-0 after the first period, and were unable to recover in the 4-3 loss.
The goals for Presque Isle (9-3) were scored by Thomas Patenaude, who registered a pair, and Torey Levesque. Jake Stevens assisted on all three goals, while Levesque and Jonah Roy each had one assist. PI put 30 shots on net during the course of the match.
Andre Daigle saved 18 of 22 shots in goal for the Wildcats.
Camden Hills improved to 8-5 with the win. PI had beaten the Windjammers 8-3 on Dec. 7 at the Forum in Presque Isle.
“This was our first game against a higher-ranked team in awhile and we dug ourselves a bit of a hole and couldn’t quite get out of it,” said Wildcat coach Carl Flynn.
After Tuesday’s game in Waterville, Presque Isle hosts Hampden Academy Friday and John Bapst Saturday.
