WELLESLEY — As the final buzzer sounded at Babson Skating Center Saturday night, and a final shot from the Norwood High boys was not enough to avoid a 1-0 loss to Wellesley, there was an air of surprise and frustration among the visiting Mustangs.

Expletives escaped a few mouths, a few sticks were angrily banged against the ice, and the team moseyed around for a few seconds before half-heartedly going through the post-game handshake line.
