While everyone remains glued to the televisions watching the latest Cinderella stories during March Madness, the Tucson Roadrunners are slowly making their way closer to their first Calder Cup playoff berth in franchise history and a story of their own.
In my earlier Calder Countdown piece in January, I noted that March would be one of the Roadrunners biggest obstacles to making a playoff berth. That couldn’t remain any truer.
Nearing the end of the month now, the Roadrunners have a six-point lead (78-72) over the San Diego Gulls and Ontario Reign, and have still yet to give up their spot for the Pacific Division lead.
