Big Game Alert: Lumberjacks Set To Play Rochester Sunday
If you are a fan of the Granite City Lumberjacks this has been a pretty special season so far for the West Division leaders. The 'Jacks head into this weekend with an impressive 21-6-2-1 record, but they need to keep stacking dubs as division and I-94 rival Alexandria is just 4 points back in 2nd place.
The Lumberjacks have two big games this weekend as they face off against a division foe on the road, and then take on a former division foe at home. Saturday night the Lumberjacks will be in Blaine taking on the Minnesota Moose in what really should be considered a must-win game to keep the distance between Alexandria, before coming home on a rare Sunday night game against the Rochester Grizzlies.
The 'Jacks shouldn't look past the Moose as they have won 5 in a row. Game time at Fogerty Ice Arena is 7:05 pm on Saturday night.
Sunday will be a great game with Rochester coming to town in 4th place in the Central Division with an overall record of 18-9-2-2. Before Rochester left the West for the Central, this would have been a HUGE divisional/rivalry game. Don't be confused as this game is still a rivalry game considering the history between the two teams, but the level of chippiness should be less considering it's an interdivisional game.
If you are interested in heading out the the Jacks game Sunday night at 6pm, they play on the Benton County Fairgrounds at the Miller Buick GMC Arena. You can learn more about ticketing by heading to the Granite City Lumberjack's website, here.
