Even with a 7:30 p.m. puck drop, it wasn’t too late for high school hockey as St. Mary’s squared off against Natick Wednesday night.

Just like that, a third period explosion. Chase Collins, Caleb Racki (shorthanded), Aidan Fitzpatrick, and Finn Racki did the goal-scoring duties in the final frame, and that was all she wrote on Natick.
