Oahe Capitals Girls Host Mitchell, Rushmore to Open Season

Finally, after three weeks of waiting for the season to begin the Oahe Capitals girls varsity team will have its chance to begin the year hosting Mitchell and Rushmore.

The regular season started three weeks ago, but for the Caps, they had to sit and wait. Every team has played at least two games while the Brookings Rangers have played five, all before Oahe plays its first game. Jim Wedin, head coach of the Capitals says thinks being the last team to get playing will be a benefit…

The Capitals get to open the season against the state runner-up from last season as the Marlins, who are 2-1, will be in town first. The Rushmore Thunder, at 2-2 will be in town on Saturday as the Caps won two of three meetings last season including the consolation championship. Wedin says both games are going to be tough this weekend…

Wedin says it’s simple for success this weekend…

Puck drop will be at 8:00 tonight against Mitchell and then 6:00 on Saturday against Rushmore.
