Local youth hockey clubs earn hardware following busy weekend

REXBURG — The Rexburg Wildcats brought home some hardware following a successful trip to Park City, Utah, while the Idaho Falls Eagles claimed their own titles back in Idaho.

Rexburg’s 12U boys were dominant at the High Mountain Shootout in Park City, Utah, going 4-0 en route to a 12U A Division tournament title, according to coach Tony Eckman. Idaho Falls also competed at the High Mountain Shootout, finishing third in the 10U A Division. Three of Rexburg’s 10U players played with the team from Sun Valley, who won the 10U B Division championship, Eckman told EastIdahoSports.com.

While that tournament was going on in Utah, the Eagles hosted their own tournament in Idaho Falls.

There, the Eagles won both the 14U and 19U girls tournaments, according to a social media post.

Idaho Falls also placed at the Boise Veterans Cup, where the 14U boys finished third, the post says.

The Eagles will be back on home ice at Tautphaus Park this weekend, with games scheduled for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
