November 9, 2012 - North American Hockey League (NAHL) - Amarillo Bulls News Release


TOPEKA, KS - The Amarillo Bulls begin a four-game road trip tonight (Friday) when they visit the Topeka RoadRunners at Kansas Expo Center Landon Arena beginning at 7:05 pm.

The lone home game is next Saturday, Nov. 17 when the Jackalopes are at the Budwesier Bull Pen in the Amarillo Civic Center.

The Bulls have not been back in Topeka since clinching last year's South Division Championship in four games.
