Week 2 Highlights

Fugaweez 3, Phantoms 1: Fugaweez (2-0) get goals from Damon Lacey, Eric Johnson and Kent Tab, and Bobby Michaelides shuts down the Phantoms (1-1) until the final two minutes. Jason Neal gets the only goal for Phantoms, with 1:22 left. (Remember, they hung seven last week.) Looks like it got heated late, with roughing and unsportsmanlike conduct on both teams. Ten penalties overall.

Patriots 1, Blue Devils 0: John Newell punches the puck through a scrum in the crease with 8 seconds left in the first period. It's all Patriots goalie Jon Ellis needs in a battle of top I-league netminders. Roy Haenselmann picks up the assist. Blue Devils fall to 1-1. Patriots are 2-0.

Ice Holes 2, Wolverines 1: Peter Neift has a goal and assist as Ice Holes hold on. Christine Kilmer scored late for Wolverines (0-2). Ice Holes (2-0) played typically stingy defense. Wolverines' goalie Don Inman stops 22 of 24.

Brewzers 5, Snipers 2: The Snipers go up 2-0 on goals by Jack Frank and Scott Hughes but get buried with five unanswered by the Brewzers (1-1). The mysterious Player No. 7 (unnamed on the scoresheet; scorekeeper Faulkner had a bad night that way) scores the hat trick. Jason Wall and Jennifer Leonard add goals. Snipers fall to 0-2.

REDRUM 3, Stickmen 0: Heather Gray scores two, and REDRUM (1-1) add an empty netter as time runs out on Stickmen (0-2). Robert Peck has two assists. Jim Anderson gets the shutout. No idea how many shots he stopped. Sloppy scorekeeper strikes again.

**A word on spelling ... I'm doing the best I can. You can't imagine the chicken scratch that passes for scorekeeper handwriting. This disclaimer also goes for stats.
