POST-GAME COMMENTS:
Laurier head coach, Kelly Paton reflected on the team’s mindset going into the next Battle of Waterloo on Saturday night:
“Waterloo is a pretty physical team, whether it's puck races or physical play along the boards. They seem to have their way with us more times than not. That’s going to be the focus for us going into the next game, being a bit more present when we get into those situations so that we feel like we can be competitive.”
UP NEXT:
The Hawks will be looking to bounce back against the Warriors this Saturday, November 6 at Columbia Ice Fields in Waterloo. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m.
