The Nichols Vikings Fall Development Team traveled to Lakeshore Hockey Arena to play the Monroe County U-18 Eagles in its final game of the fall season and came home with a 4-2 victory. The win gives the Vikings a final record of 4-1-1 in the fall.
Nick Smith, who missed the last three games due to injury, was welcomed back as he paced the offense with 2 goals and 1 assist. His linemate Patrick Thompson had 1 goal and 2 assists. Brandon Mueller was a key part of the victory with his stellar play in net.
Nichols broke out to a 2 goal lead in the first half with both goals coming off the stick of Smith. Monroe cut the lead in half, but Nichols responded with a breakaway goal from Andrew Poturalski and a one-timer from Patrick Thompson. Monroe made things interesting when they scored 12 seconds later to make it 4-2, but Mueller and the defense shut the door on Monroe.
Breakaway - YAY for Andrew!!
