ODESSA, TX- The Laredo Bucks of the Central Hockey League fell to the Odessa Jackalopes 4-2 Saturday night at the Ector County Coliseum. The Bucks fall to 2-2-1 (five points) while the Jackalopes snap their three game losing streak and improve to 2-4 (four points).
Dominic Leveille had three points (1-2=3) including the game-winning goal in his first game of the season after returning from an injury while Joel Martin picked up his first win in net this season stopping 30 shots.
