Player Notes: Stanley vs. Power Lake-Burke Central

<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">PHD checked out Class A vs. Class B action on Saturday night and it did not disappoint. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The game was played at Powers Lake (The Barn) and it was a packed house. Powers Lake and Stanley are about 30 mins apart, so these two squads know each other well. I would imagine there were plenty of bragging rights to be had in a victory. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"typography":{"fontStyle":"normal","fontWeight":"100"}},"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size" style="font-style:normal;font-weight:100">The first half was owned by Stanley, it was to the point where I thought the game was over. However, the Ranchers and [player_tooltip player_id='2309413' first='Kyle' last='Huseby'] had different plans, which was evident in the 3rd quarter. PLBC came out of the gate after halftime hot and they quickly erased the 12-point deficit and even took the lead. If it was not for [player_tooltip player_id='1716899' first='Drake' last='Schlosser'], Stanley would have been in a big hole, the athletic senior kept the Blue Jays within striking distance. Stanley battled back in the 4th and made enough plays down the stretch to get the victory.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"typography":{"fontStyle":"normal","fontWeight":"200"}}} --> <p style="font-style:normal;font-weight:200">See below for player notes...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"typography":{"fontSize":"22px"}}} --> <p style="font-size:22px"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Stats &amp;
