After picking up points in their first five games Lone Star suffered its first regulation loss and then another in overtime. The Brahmas have netted first goals in five of the seven games and have won four games (4-0-0) when leading after 40 minutes and outshooting an opponent.

ACROSS THE SOUTH: Lots of action this weekend in the South Division with the Topeka RoadRunners beginning a two game set in West Texas to face the Odessa Jackalopes at Ector County Coliseum. The Wichita Falls Wildcats close out a two game set at American Bank Center against the IceRays.
