Forwards George Mika and Tyler Gernhofer have combined for five goals against the RoadRunners, while Jake Houston, Charlie Singerhouse and Jeff Solow each have two helpers. Ten different players have tallied for Topeka in the season series with Dominic Lutz leading the way with three goals. Luka Maver has chipped in four assists.
LOTS OF HOCKEY AHEAD: After playing one game over a nine day period the Amarillo Bulls get cracking with five games in nine days. It starts this weekend with the Bulls hosting Topeka and continues on Tuesday with a single road trip to face the Odessa Jackalopes at Ector County Coliseum. The busy stretch concludes next weekend with the Bulls visiting the Wichita Falls Wildcats.
SOUTH DIVISION PLAYOFF UPDATE: There are still many things left undecided in the South Division heading into this weekend of action. The Corpus Christi IceRays once again have a two point lead on the Odessa Jackalopes for the fourth and final playoff spot. The IceRays entertain the first-place Wichita Falls Wildcats at American Bank Center, while the Odessa Jackalopes have a date in North Richland Hills to face the Lone Star Brahmas. Odessa still has two games in hand on Corpus Christi. The Wildcats lead the Brahmas by seven points for first. The Topeka RoadRunners are third but have company coming behind them as both Odessa and Corpus Christi are 11 and 9 points back respectively.
