This is a look back at some of the people and teams making news in the St. Croix Valley 10 years ago, as reported in the Stillwater Gazette.
Boys hockey — Away from the Ponies for three weeks, Stillwater boys hockey coach Phil Housley guides Team USA to a gold medal in the IIHF World Junior Championships in Ufa, Russia. The Americans lose two one-goal games during pool play but advance to the medal round to reel off consecutive victories over the Czech Republic, Canada and Sweden to capture the title.
Nordic skiing — Megan Weaver claims individual honors while teammates Vessa Pearsall and Haley Beech follow in third and fifth place to help send the Stillwater girls Nordic skiing team to a victory over rival Roseville and the rest of the field in a Suburban East Conference classic race at Lake Elmo Park Reserve.
Boys basketball — Behind a season-high 32 points from senior Andrew Duxbury, the Stillwater boys basketball team pulls away for an 88-71 Suburban East Conference victory at Woodbury. The Ponies connect on 17 of 19 two-point field goal attempts (89 percent) in the first half while building a 46-36 lead and make 20 of 24 free throws in the game. Matt Anderson adds 19 points for the Ponies.
