The Windsor Lancers Men’s Hockey team proved that they will be a force to be reckoned with in the OUA this season, despite two weekend losses.
The Lancers faced two of the top teams in the NCAA’s Division 1, the Miami Ohio Redhawks and Michigan Wolverines, this past weekend, losing both games 6-2.
The Lancers headed to Ohio on Saturday to face the top ranked Redhawks Saturday night.
Despite a strong effort, the Lancers could not hold off the Redhawks powerful scorers.
Aggressive play by the Lancers in the first half of the opening period kept the Redhawks off the board until the Redhawks found a way to slip the puck past Lancer net minder, Jim Watt.
The Redhawks went on to score two more goals and held a 3-0 lead going into the second period.
After one period of play, the Lancers were being out-shot 16-7. >>
