Heights used a fast start and a strong finish to beat Kent Roosevelt 6-3 in their first game of the new year. The Tigers scored the first three goals of the match and never relinquished the lead. Ben Winger scored twice on the powerplay and Jeff Houser added a third goal before Kent got on the board, scoring on a breakaway with one second left in the first period. The second period was more evenly played. Dan Crowell scored just over a minute in, but Kent recorded the next two goals and made it a 4-3 game. Rather than panic after a rough period, Heights came back out and dominated the third. The Tigers took 21 shots on goal in the final period without allowing a single shot by Kent. Erik Shoger picked up his first career goal and Ben Winger scored again to complete his first career hat trick. Nate Hall finished the game with four assists. Peter Eckendorf only had to make 7 saves to get his second win of the season.
