Welcome to all players, parents and fans of Crookston youth hockey.

"There is no hockey school on God's earth to match that so innocently by youngsters out on a frozen pond, learning to play by loving to play, free unfettered, uncontaminated by adults, and unspoiled by the egos of elderly gentlemen such as myself. That .....is what this marvelous game of hockey is all about."

Lester Patrick - New York Rangers - NHL

The high school senior hockey player from St. Croix Lutheran, may show some signs of improvment.......

A female hockey player who suffered a potentially paralyzing injury in a game Friday night may be improving, according to a school official.  

Her family says Jenna Privette, an 18-year-old senior from St. Croix Lutheran High School, was checked from behind and immediately had no feeling in her arms and legs.

Apparently there has been improvement. Gene Pfeifer, the president of St. Croix Lutheran, says he talked with Privette's family around 6 p.m. Sunday. Penny Privette, Jenna's mother, told Pfeifer that Jenna now has feeling and some movement in her arms and pain in her back, which is an indication that she may not be permanently paralyzed.

Earlier, Jenna's father Dan Privette told the Associated Press that Jenna's spirits were "up and down." Privette's mother had previously told school officials that images from an MRI reveal no breaks in the bones on Jenna's spine.
