Ben Hanowski Ties and then Sets Record

Little Falls Flyer, Senior Forward, Ben Hanowski ties and then sets the record in Minnesota High School Boys Hockey for most career points. The goal that tied the record came when the Flyers were skating short-handed. St. Cloud Apollo had a five on three advantage. At first it appeared that a save was made on Hanowski's shot, as if in slow motion, the puck trickled over the goal line. Moments later, in the same video, the flyers scored a second short-handed goal.



Hanowski's record setting point came on a well placed wrist shot over the goalies glove, into the upper corner. The crowd, estimated by some to be around 2,000, went nuts.



Hanowski, who will be playing for St. Cloud State next year, started the season 108 points behind Johnny Pohl's record for most career points. Pohl set the record when he played for Red Wing High School from 1995 to 1998. He accumulated 378 points during that time.
It took Johnny Pohl 112 games to reach his long standing record of 378 total points. Hanowski did it in 111 games.

Although the record is a great achievement, Ben would be the first to tell you that it doesn't compare to the team goal of heading back to the state tournament to bring home some hardware.

Congratulations to the entire Flyer hockey team on their perfect regular season record! The Little Falls community is proud of you.
