The Mavs kicked off their defense of last season's LVC Conference Championship and strong end of the season top 25 ranking with a hard-fought 5-2 victory over rink mates Fenton-Linden Tuesday night at Hartland.

Captain Jack Clickett netted a three goal hatty with an assist, Alex Kozar and Ryan Okragly both scored, DMen Stevan Vujic and Captain Shane Quinn each had two assists and Thomas Kennedy IV had a helper to pace the Mav attack.

Captain Clicks earned 'The Chain' for his stat sheet filling performance and leadership.

Cooper Langley was a force field between the Mav's pipes with 39 saves to help keep the Griffins from getting within a goal from early in the second period to the final buzzer.

The Mavs welcomed several new teammates who played in their first high school game including Freshmen Brian Meagher and Craig Borges, Sophomores Alex Kozar, Ari Snider, Matthew Menzies, TJ Romanuk, and Jesse Lee, Junior Griffin Cook and Senior James Zielke.

The Mavs travel to Sault Ste. Marie Friday for the Soo Eagles Showcase with games Friday night against the hometown Soo Blue Devils and a Saturday matinee against the Big Rapids Cardinals.

Milford Hockey enjoyed and appreciated the support of a boisterous student section and several graduated Mav Hockey Team Members who certainly had a hand in getting Milford to the finish line. 

Thank you for your support and Go Mavs!
