Jackalopes "March" Toward a Division Title
Published on March 1, 2006 under Central Hockey League (CHL)
Odessa Jackalopes News Release
The Jackalopes begin the month of March, 13 points ahead of the Amarillo Gorillas in the battle for the Southwest Division title. With a total of nine home games in the final month of the regular season, the Jackalopes are looking to gain momentum and secure the home ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs. Ector County Coliseum has been outstanding to the Jacks of late; with a record of 18-1-1 in the last 20 games, the Jackalopes have been the hardest team to beat in the CHL when playing at home. The end of the season also means that fans will be able to take part in great promotions and fantastic giveaway items. Make sure that you and your friends come out to the Jack Shack this month to help push the Jackalopes to a Southwest Division Title.
