3 events in the books, surprises abound

    Two months ago if anyone had walked up to you on the street and asked you who would win the SECRHL Division I, the answers would most likely have been heavily on the side of defending champion North Carolina State...and with good reason the Wolfpack has started the season 4-0 and looks to better their record in the coming week as the SECRHL converges on Raleigh.  

 

No one would have guessed Florida International or Broward Community College would be at the top of their respective divisions at this point in the season.  At 8-1-3 and 7-2-3 respectively the two teams are shocking teams left and right in the first half.  The Panthers have won more games this season in three events then they did all last season and have put themselves in prime position to not only qualify but also to contend for home ice advantage at Regionals.  BCC on the other hand has stepped up and shown they are ready to contend with any level teams anytime. 

 

Not to be forgotten the Florida B Divsion team is starting where they left off with a 6-2 start in their first two events, trying to be the first team not from UCF to win the B Division in back to back years in a long time. 

 

Although these teams have started fast, while others have struggled early the SECRHL season has for the most part just begun.  With two more events before the Winter Break begins teams will look to put themselves in the drivers seat for Regionals in March.  Tune in for more updates, statistics and game schedules for this past weekend, November 11-12 in Raliegh at the Carolina Sportsplex and December 2-3 on Columbia, SC.
