In a tiebreaker finish Team Leveille beats Team Ott in the NWHL All-Star Skills Competition.

This weekend the NWHL was in St. Paul at the Tria Rink for the All-Star Game and the Skills Competition. Tonight was the Skills Competition where Team Leveille and Team Ott faced off in six competitions: fastest skater, fastest goalie, accuracy shooting, breakaway contest, hardest shot, and the shootout challenge. While typically these professional athletes are performing at their best against the competition, this is a much more relax event where they get to let out their silly side. This showed almost as soon as they skaters hit the ice, as Team Leveille got on their knees and bowed as their captain, Amanda Leveille, was announced.
