Mahtomedi 4, Bemidji 1: The two-time defending state champion Zephyrs (14-2-2) used a four-goal blitz in the first half to stop the Lumberjacks (13-6-1) at St. Cloud State.

Three of the Zephyrs’ goals came in the final 14 minutes of the first half. Anna Wagner scored twice for the Zephyrs.

Wagner opened the scoring with a goal in the fourth minute and made it 4-0 with a goal in the 40th minute. The Zephyrs also got goals from Abbey Grabow in the 26th minute and Jojie Barry in the 35th minute (on an assist from Wagner).

Bemidji was making its third consecutive and fourth overall appearance in the state tournament. Lexi Paquette’s goal in the 48th minute was the first goal in school history for Bemidji in a state tournament game.

In the semifinals Monday at U.S. Bank Stadium, the top-seeded Zephyrs will play the winner of Thursday’s quarterfinal between Blake and Waconia.
