Dec. 22—TRAVERSE CITY — Two big points for Traverse City Central.

The Trojans topped Big North Conference foe Cadillac 9-1, dropping one of the league's early contenders to keep Central (4-3-2, 4-1 BNC) within striking distance of first-place Alpena (7-2, 3-0 BNC).

Hunter Folgmann led Central with two goals and two assists. Owen Dawson added two goals and one assist, with Cam Peters logging a goal and four assists.

Koen Burkholder and Graham Peters each contributed a goal and assist, Luke Weaver set up two scores, Zander Lorincz put up an assist, and Mathew McKinney scored his first varsity goal. Brady Faille notched 10 saves for the Trojans, who play Rockford on Wednesday in their opener of the Scott Miller Memorial at Centre Ice.

Henry Schmittdiel scored Cadillac's lone goal, assisted by Gabe Outman and Zach Beckhardt. Dylan Quartz made 13 saves, and Dakota Vail 10 for the Vikings.

Cadillac (8-2, 3-2 BNC) is off until Jan. 4, hosting TC Central.

The Trojans, who dropped a 4-1 home decision to the Wildcats last Saturday, close out the regular season with a Feb. 17 date at Alpena. If both teams win out in league games until then, Central could force a tie atop the league with a victory.
