Second half set to tee it up!

The MCRHL swings back into action this weekend in Ohio as teams converge on Centerville.  All of the squads counted the time off as well needed in order to catch up on studies as well as nursing those injuries from the ferocious first half of the season.

 

The action forecasted in the preseason has lived up to the billing with some of the same old faces ruling the roost while upstarts in both the A and B divisions look to start their own legacies.

 

In the A side, Michigan State is in the drivers seat with their win over the Eagles at the last event.  Meanwhile, Purdue, Western Michigan, and Michigan look to scramble for playoff position and get the best possible seed.  Coach D'Antonio's Wolverines continue to surprise leaguewide with their consistent, fiesty play.  Meanwhile, other stalwarts from Ohio State to Ball State look to play the role of spoiler, and gather momentum heading into regionals.

 

On the B side of the coin, Macomb looks to stay unbeaten, but to be sure, the Broncos and Eagles will have something to say about that.  The B division is up for grabs this year, and watch out for Northern Illinois who picked up speed heading into this stretch last year.

 

Three more events remain before regionals, with all teams looking to make an impression on the selection committee for nationals.  The action promises to be fierce, so come on out, to the good ol' hockey game!!!
