Big Sweep Against New Mexico

With a much needed 4 point sweep this weekend against New Mexico, our team has put ourselves back into the playoff hunt with Wichita Falls for the final playoff seed.

In our first game we had a decisive 5-2 Win. As a team we started off really slow and were only up 1-0 at the end of the first. But we came through as a team and I received my first NAHL point with an assist to Brandon Marshall on his empty net goal. Also one of my hits in the first period was voted hit of the game.

In the second game however New Mexico came out with a harder push and we were playing extremely poorly. The first two periods of the game we couldn't make a pass or get anything rolling as a team. Luckily we finally received some help from the officials and scored a power play goal from Beau Walker with seven minutes left immediately following an even strength goal to tie it up. With 15.7 seconds left Beau Walker again buried the puck to win it in a huge last minute come from behind win

Now only 5 points out of forth place in the Southern Division, we go into another weekend with New Mexico, this time at their own barn, immediately followed by another road game against Amarillo.
