Dubuque Fighting Saints News Release


After winning both of their games at the Mystique Community Ice Center this past weekend by a combined score of 10-2, the Dubuque Fighting Saints have an opportunity to play two more contests on their home ice before hitting the road the following weekend. Since starting the season 0-2, the Fighting Saints have compiled a 7-1-1 record to vault them near the top of the USHL's Western Conference.

This weekend's games will cap a stretch for the Saints of seven of eight games in the Key City and ten games in the state of Iowa. Dubuque plays the Chicago Steel at 7 PM on Friday night, and will take on the Muskegon Lumberjacks at the same time on Saturday evening.

The Chicago Steel, Dubuque's Friday opponent, bring a much improved squad to the USHL table in 2010-11. Under the tutelage of new head coach Jon Waibel, they sit just three points out of first place in the Eastern Conference. Though the first month of the season, the Steel have compiled a 5-7-1 record, including an impressive victory over the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders. Despite their early success, the Steel have lost three in a row, including one on Tuesday night to the Lumberjacks in Chicago.
