In game 1, Buffs battled back to make the game 3-2 in the middle of the second period, but a series of penalties enabled #15 Denver to take advantage. They took game one 10-2. The second game did not prove much better, as the Buffs were down 4-0 early due to more penalties. They battled back to make it 5-2, but four late goals gave Denver the win and the series sweep. As a result, the Buffs did not qualify for Nationals.
Thanks to seniors Jake Kalscheur and Joe Daileader for their commitments to the team. They will be graduating this year, and hopefully they will continue playing roller hockey at a high level.
Thank you to the fans and sponsors who supported the Buffs during the 2016-2017 season. We will see you next year!
