SOUTHAVEN---The Central Hockey League announced today that Memphis RiverKings goalie David Lemanowicz has been named the Oakley/C.H.L. Goaltender of the Week. In three games this past weekend, Lemanowicz held Wichita, San Angelo and Fort Worth to one goal each in leading the RiverKings to three wins.

He made 109 saves on 112 shots in the three games for a save percentage of .973. Overall, the RiverKings and Lemanowicz have held their opponents to one goal for four straight games and the result has been a four-game winning streak.

Lemanowicz has improved his record to 16-14-0, lowered his season G.A.A. to 1.82 and raised his save percentage to .918. This is the third Player/Goaltender of the Week award for Memphis in the last month. Don Parsons was named Player of the Week on January 24 and Travis Banga was player of week on February 7.

Amarillo's Derek Hahn was the player of the week selection.

Lemanowicz and the rest of the RiverKings return to the ice this weekend with games against the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees Friday and Saturday. Both games are 7:05 starts.

The first 1,500 fans to Friday's game will receive a Mercury Printing/Wonder Bread Kenny Goetz Growth Chart. It is also Scout Night with the RiverKings.
