The Raven boys got back on the winning track this past Tuesday with a 5-0 win over Kent-Meridian.

The Ravens got goals from Kevin Wien, Dalen Leverenz and John Buell, as well as two from backup goalie Jacob Baumann.

Steven Fairbanks contributed two assists, with Zeman pitching in for one as well.

Derek Hawn earned the shutout.

“We came out with positive energy to get back on a winning role,” Saarenas said.
