Young named SJHL player of the week
When Friday’s game was in doubt against the La Ronge Ice Wolves, it was the Battlefords North Stars captain that quickly led the third period comeback.
Layne Young first netted a shorthanded goal, then assisted on three more as the North Stars came from behind to win the contest 5-2.
Young totalled nine points in just three games this past week, and was subsequently named the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League player of the week on Monday.
In addition to his five-point night on Friday, Young had two-point games on both Tuesday and Saturday.
