The Mavs picked up their third win a row and second in as many nights with a hard fought 5-2 victory over LVC Conference foe Lakes Area Saturday night at Lakeland.

LA scored first just four minutes into the contest before Milford's Will Fulton answered with an assist from Joe "Hollywood" Meagher a couple minutes later followed by Captain Jack Clickett's Power Play goal, with help from Alex Kozar and Fulton halfway through the first, to stake the Mavs to a lead they'd never relinquish.

Senior Thomas Kennedy IV scored on the empty LA net with 45 seconds to go to make it 5-2 and ice the game.  Four year DMan Kennedy IV banked a shot from the top of Milford's own zone circle top into the unguarded LA net, a Minnesota Fats feat, which was a beautiful thing considering the Mav's emphasis on using the seventh man.  Multisport star 'IV' was awarded the "Chain' for his stellar defensive effort, unique empty net tally and unlimited energy/compete level (thanks to Milford's Hall of Fame Cross Country Coach Sal)!

Milford netminder Cooper Langley was his usual solid self with 35 saves while Lakes Area tendy Tyler Long was also strong between the pipes to keep Lakes Area within striking distance with several point blank stops.

Fulton finished with a goal and two assists, Clickett had 2 goals and one assist, red hot Ryan Okragly had one and one, and Kozar had two apples.

The Mavs have the day off Sunday before boarding the yellow tank for a Monday 5PM tilt against the Genessee Generals Unified (hard to keep up with which high schools are represented by the Generals) and then finish off the 2022 campaign Wednesday at Home in an LVC Conference battle against Walled Lake Western/Pinckney Unified at 6PM.

Thank You for your support and Go Mavs!
