The Roadrunners opened the 2013-2014 season on a high note
with three wins at home. They won games in consecutive nights against the
Corpus Christi Ice Rays, then won a single contest against the Odessa
Jackalopes in a 6-0 effort. Following the home stand, the team made a trip to
Minnesota for the NAHL Showcase. So far the team is 2-1 at the showcase,
improving their overall record to 5-1.
The team will play one more game against Aberdeen before returning to
Landon Arena for two games against Springfield and two games against the Lone
Star Brahmas. Through six games, the standout offensive threat has been Tyler
Poulsen who has netted 3 goals, and also assisted on 3 others. Jerad Tafoya has contributed 3 goals and both
James Ring and Mike Gornall have 5 assists early on this season. The ‘Runners have started two goaltenders and
both have a shutout to their credit. However, it appears that the starter will
be Drew Vogler who has 93 saves thus far in 4 starts. The team will return to Topeka for a matchup
against the Jr. Blues next Friday, with the first puck dropping at 7:15.
