Final
Minneapolis 5
New Prague 2
Congratulations to a very good Minneapolis squad! It was a great high school hockey game and they earned the win.
Very emotional end to our season. Very proud of our kids.
Last night's second period wasn't just memorable, but potentially historic!
We believe the 8 team goals sets a new MSHSL record for goals in a period by a team (held by Eveleth in 1945 with 7!).
And Will Seymour's 5 goals in the period ties the state record as well!
We're excited to welcome Beckett to the Trojans family! He'll join his older siblings and make a full penalty kill unit in the Drazan household!
Congratulations to Coach and Makayla and his triplet siblings!
Not our night.
Congratulations to a good
@NHSBoysHockey
squad who will represent the section well in St. Paul.
It's hard to say goodbye to a fantastic senior class.
We're out of words and emotions right now but wouldn't trade the experience with these kids for anything.
We're so proud of
@NPTrojanBall
and their great season! You brought the whole community out in force to cheer you on, and even though we lost, we loved every minute of your run. Let's do it again next year!
We're excited to welcome a new addition to the New Prague hockey family, one who we are confident will be a future star forward for the
@NP_GirlsHockey
team! Welcome Shay Borwege, and congratulations to Anna and Coach Colton!
We're excited to officially announce the addition of NPHS alumnus Grant Yackly to our coaching staff!
Coach Yackly will work with the existing staff and assist with both the varsity and JV teams as needed.
Welcome aboard, Grant!
We all share the same ice, and we are in this together. We're with our brothers from Becker-Big Lake and want them to know we're thinking about them & their loss. Losing Pish as an opponent is no different than losing a teammate.
With school wrapped up and as we start summer workouts, we wanted to recognize a few folks retiring this year.
These three spent a TON of time around rinks over the past 30 years, as spouses, parents, and managers.
They deserve a huge congratulations on retirement!
We grieve along with the HS girls program and our youth program today, and wish our sympathies to Brenda, Alex (and family), Landon, and Taylor.
Matt was a great friend to our program and all of Trojan hockey and we will miss him terribly.
We're very proud of our graduating senior captain John Schmidt and his leadership over his career!
It's a deserving honor for someone who has demonstrated great dedication to our program!
Congratulations, Schmidtty!
@mnwild
That was never the plan.
You can do a lot of great things and outshoot your opponent almost 2 to 1 and prevent them from a shot altogether in the third period despite a five minute penalty kill, but a bounce the wrong way and it's in your net. That's hockey.
Awesome game between two great teams tonight. Both goalies get stick taps as this one could have gone either way!

We have a lot to be thankful for, from our managers, to our bands, and especially our parents, who were with us every inch of the way. Our players are fine young men and we're lucky to work with them.
Courtesy of Coach Morris, who was on the 1980 New Prague State Tournament Team, we're preparing for today's
@NPTrojanBall
game against Blaine by reading the New Prague Times from back then! Good luck at state, Trojan Baseball!
Great crowd tonight. Not the outcome we wanted, but it was a fantastic atmosphere and we battled to the end.
We want to celebrate our seniors. They worked hard and are great young men. We will miss them next season!
Thanks also to our parents, our fans, and our community!
Announcing our 2021-2022 Captains!
We believe all our players must take a role in our leadership team, but these three student-athletes will begin the season representing us!
Lots to celebrate with a big win!
Max Hanzel with the stylish game, and first goals for Berg, Goggins, and Williams- along with a first varsity win for Pomerenke in the net!
We're all about bonus baseball and supporting
@NPTrojanBall
today. We also had some OT luck this past season ourselves to draw upon, so Beat the Panthers!
Congratulations to Hugh Goggins and Kenzie O'Brien, the Hobey Baker Award winners from New Prague!
They were honored tonight at RiverCenter with a banquet, and will then head to the Wild game!
A well-deserved accolade for our glue guy!
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Chuck Kajer, the tireless editor of the New Prague Times & a NPHS alumnus. He was a great friend of our program & cheerleader of all things Trojan. Our sympathies to the Kajer family on their loss, and our community will miss him.
A couple of Trojans out in Buffalo for the Frozen Four were able to hit up the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto to put a little New Prague on Lord Stanley's Cup today!
Congrats to Senior Captain Jack Wilmes for being recognized as the
@mnwild
Captain Spotlight for the month of March! It is a well-deserved honor for a wonderful leader in our program!
We love watching our guys play, but we really love what they do off the ice.
Shout out to Patrick O'Rourke, Hugh Goggins, and Willie Seymour for going the extra mile with Adopt-A-Family.
We're proud to hear of the great things our guys do without being asked (or telling coach!)
We're getting excited for the start of the season! We'll highlight a few of our seniors to get us ready to drop the puck on practice in a few weeks. First up: Captain Blake Woodson!

Rest In Peace to Owatonna head coach Dave Fromm (54 years old). Dave coached hockey in Colorado and Minnesota for over 30 years. He mentored a countless number of pro and college players.
He was a standout goalie for MPLS Roosevelt in his day and always wore a a
We're very proud of our players who assisted with the Le Sueur County Adopt-a-Family this past week.
Thanks to the gang who helped to make this a special Christmas for those who needed some extra joy this holiday season!
We wanted to recognize all the fantastic faculty and staff who spend their time and efforts caring for our student-athletes!
Our seniors took a moment this week to reach out and thank some who have been particularly influential in their lives. Thanks Mr. Seymour and Ms. Meyer!
We're very proud to honor our Activities Director Brad Skogerboe on being named the AA Activities Director of the year!
This is a well-earned award for his constant support of our student-athletes!
Thanks for all your work, Brad, and Congratulations!
NPHS Activities Director Brad Skogerboe was named the 2023 Minnesota Activities Director of the Year for AA schools. Congratulations Brad! Very well deserved!
During the delay we also wanted to give a shout out to the best student managers in the business. They do all the little things that make life easy for us. Thanks gang!
It was an honor to award Nate Picka with the Hobey Baker and Treven Smith award. Nate is a true model for "One New Prague." Congratulations, Nate.

Had a great night celebrating our season! It was hard to say goodbye to a fantastic senior class, but we're so thankful they are leaving the program having pushed it forward!
Great day of practice today! We welcomed our Bantam team to work with us and learn the program. Lots of smiles all around!
Also had one of our guys make good on a lost bet and rowed the boat at practice today. Jump around with us now, Goggs! Maroon and gold suit you!
