BOWLING GREEN — Home ice is on the line in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association tournament, and Bowling Green hopes to play as many games as possible at Slater Family Ice Arena.
The Falcons certainly played like it Friday.
No. 16 Bowling Green buried Alaska with four first-period goals and never looked back in a 8-0 victory.
Bowling Green (19-8-3) blitzed Alaska with three goals in a span of 2 minutes and 25 seconds in the first period.
Stephen Baylis started the scoring by receiving a pass from Cameron Wright, then using nifty stickhandling to deke Alaska goaltender Gustavs Grigals for the opening goal.
