On a winning streak
After taking care of business last week against Louisville to scratch a 4 game slide, the Cats entered February hoping to make a playoff run. The last opponent in their way? The Jackson Community College Ice Jets. In what has been their most offensive weekend of the year the Bearcats clawed right through the Jets winning two decisive games. And the Cats found offense from all over the roster. Leading the pack was 2nd year forward Will Hunter who scored a total of 6 goals on the weekend, while registering 3 assists for good measure. First year players Toni Sarni and Michael Rehbaum each scored twice contributing to the 15 goals scored. Also finding the scoresheet this weekend, Conn, Bailey Homer, Romo, and Gillens each had a goal. Lastly, 2nd year defensemen Ben Mutchler earned himself a playmaker in the first game.
Now the Cats must sit and wait for the ranking committee to return a decision. Currently ranked 12th, the Cats need to advance 2 spots to book themselves a ticket to the regional tournament in Saginaw Michigan.
