Bemidji posted a 5-2 victory over St. Cloud Crush on Saturday, Jan. 24, handing the girls hockey squad a decisive win that local supporters said mattered for momentum and morale. The result was a highlight in the weekend prep roundup of area high-school sports, which compiles scores across hockey, basketball and other winter sports for Beltrami County residents checking outcomes and planning the coming week's schedules.

The scoreboard result reflects a multi-goal margin that kept Bemidji comfortably ahead late in the matchup. Saturday’s game joins a slate of local contests cataloged in the Jan. 25 roundup, which aims to give families, coaches and student-athletes a single place to review weekend results and confirm upcoming game times and travel commitments.

Beyond the single-game outcome, the roundup serves practical needs for the community.
