Kylie Krumenauer, Staff Writer

Red Knight boys’ hockey team had high expectations after being ranked number one in the preseason. But, with nine out of 22 players out with injury or illness, the team had to fight hard to maintain a ranking. Three out of the nine players have suffered acromioclavicular joint separations. Captain Blake Mesenburg was injured for two weeks.Then shortly after Mesenburg’s recovery, captain Nate Schweitzer suffered the same injury and was out for two weeks. Days after Schweitzer healed, senior Charlie Bischel separated his AC as well. Luckily, Bischel was back on the first game of sections, but sadly other players suffered from illness and injury. The infographic below shows all the details.
