Less than a week ago, the Waupaca boys’ hockey team was looking at a 4-3 record in Great Northern Conference games.

Recent wins over Mosinee and Lakeland now have the Comets in third place in the standings behind Northland Pines and Antigo.

Waupaca improved to 6-3 in conference play and 10-7 overall Jan. 23 with a 5-3 win over Mosinee at the Waupaca Ice & Expo Center. The Comets also shut out Lakeland 2-0 Jan. 21, but dropped a 9-5 nonconference decision Jan. 20 to Sun Prairie
