The Baldwin boys ice hockey team lost to Mt Lebanon 3-0 Monday night. 

It was a slow-moving game for the Highlanders, as it seemed nothing could go their way, senior forward Vince Tortoretti said. Mt. Lebanon scored two of their three goals off of Baldwin players’ pads into the net. 

Tortoretti said the boys were missing quite a few players due to illnesses. 

“It is a major setback. We are not the same without our whole team,” Tortoretti said. “We need to make better passes. We had a lot of missed opportunities.”

Senior Nick Buys feels that the issues with the game were more mental than physical. 

“We were not all there mentally and there are a lot of small mistakes that can be fixed,” Buys said. 

This was a tough loss for Baldwin, but they look to come back stronger than ever. 

“Losses like these are unacceptable,” Buys said. “We should not be losing to teams like this, but now all we can do is keep our heads up and grind.”

Their next game will be played on Monday at 9 p.m. at Ice Castle vs. Peters Township
