Chaska/Chanhassen vs. Lakeville South
7 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 1

The early part of the season has been a roller coaster for Chaska/Chanhassen, as the Storm Hawks have followed each of their three wins with a loss.

Those losses have come against ranked teams -- No. 1-1A Blake, No. 2-1A Breck and No. 4-1A St. Paul United -- which could be cause for concern on Thursday, as they face No. 11-2A Lakeville South.

Senior forward and Bemidji State commit Lydia Passolt (6-7-13) leads Chaska/Chanhassen (3-3) in scoring and could be instrumental in breaking the losing streak against ranked teams. 

Lakeville South had its three-game winning streak snapped with a 5-0 loss to No. 4-2A Hill-Murray on Nov. 26, marking the second time the Cougars (3-2) have been shut out this season. The Cougars rely heavily on junior goaltender Lexi Baker, who has posted a .918 save percentage and two shutouts entering this week.
