(NewsDakota.com) – The Blue Jay boys hockey team won their final home game Tuesday night over Mandan 3-1, and in doing so, clinched the number four seed for the West Region Tournament next week in Bismarck.

Jamestown received a first period goal from Nick Stockert, his 16th, and a second period tally from Austin Rene, his 12th, to build a 2-0 lead after two.

The Braves struck for a goal with about seven and a half minutes remaining to slice it to 2-1, but Jacob Miller blasted home his 2nd goal of the season about a minute later to give Jamestown the momentum back.

“This was a total 100% team effort” said head coach Matt Stockert.

The Jays out shot Mandan 30-27, with goalie Brian Wenzel making 26 saves.

Ironically, these two team will play each other in the opening round in the WDA Tourney at 1:30 pm on February 19th.

Jamestown wraps up the regular season on Thursday night at defending state champion Bismarck.  Drop of the puck is set for 7:15 pm. Listen for coverage on ESPN Jamestown, AM 1400 and 97.1 FM.
