Herzog scored late in the first period, added a second goal early in the second, and assisted on Samantha Bogen's goal several minutes later.

Blossoms coach John Bruns stated, "Overall this was a really good first game for us. We learned a lot about our team and who we are and what we need to be in order to get better."

The OHS girls basketball squad began their season with a 58-45 win at New Prague after trailing by two at the half. Lexi Mendenhall scored 11. Holly Buytaert added ten. The Huskies open their home season and Big Nine schedule Thursday by hosting Mankato East.
