 Well, back to the ice and McNaughton Cup is handed out the regular seasons over. Now it's time for the WCHA men's hockey playoffs and for BSU, they're the four seed, hosting number five Michigan Tech this weekend in the quarterfinals. The two just met earlier this month and Houghton with each team winning a game convincingly. The stakes are higher, the speed is faster, and all little things are magnified as playoff hockey this weekend. Get excited for a fun series at the Sanford Center. It's really nice being home and whenever you get a chance to play at home, the first round of playoffs, I feel like it's really important and we're definitely excited to play Michigan Tech. Both teams kind of got the the taste of what it takes to beat the other. So I think that for the fan base, I think that's going to make for an exciting series. It's going to be back and forth and you know it's going to be tight games here in the building. Take a look at those two games and Houghton a couple weeks ago they were both you know pretty tight vows. We went Friday, they went Saturday and you know being at home helps us but at the end of the day they're going to have something to say about that. So best of three all at the Sanford Center this weekend game one Friday night puck set to drop just after 7 p.m. If you enjoyed this segment of Lakeland news please consider making a tax deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.
