MCRHL First Weekend

The first weekend of the 2006 season went well. With the new points of emphasis on penalties most teams had some adjusting to do. The morning was rough with most games drawing over 10 penalties each. With so many people in the box the game became about having a strong penalty kill. Both Miami Of Ohio and Eastern Michigan were able to kill a 2 on 4 penalty. Later in the day the penalties calmed down and teams learned to adjust their game. Grandvalley State, a team that just moved up from being an affiliate team this season, beat Eastern Michigan in a 6 to 8 game. Oakland Community College, the only other affiliate team to move up, won all three of the games they played this weekend. The next weekend for this season will be held at "The Megaplex" In Homer Glen Illinois on November 3rd.
