Youth hockey teams from Salmon and Idaho Falls joined two Sun Valley girls' hockey teams and the Sun Valley Twisters women for a weekend of tournament fun at Sun Valley Skating Center Jan. 23-25.

In its eagerly anticipated Senior Recognition game Saturday, the SV Black U-19 girls got fired up from crowd support and beat the Idaho Falls Eagles 3-1 on goals by Ashley Hesteness (2) and Aimee Evans. Assists went to Tanner Dredge and Erin Hennessy.

Sun Valley Black clashed with Idaho Falls again on Sunday, this time with the score staying at 1-1. Nellie Brown, assisted by Frannie Sensenbrenner, got the goal. Brown and Evans earned the game pucks for the first two games.
