Pioneers Knocked Out of Championship by Wolverines

The Pioneers' luck against the Wolverines ran out today as they lost 2-0 to the team they had beaten four times this season, which accounted for the Wolverines only losses. The Pioneers' defense was adequate, allowing only two goals, but the offense couldn't catch a break today.

The game was scoreless through the first two periods, with the Wolverine's first goal coming with 8:59 left in the third period. They scored again less than two minutes later for a two goal lead that wouldn't change.

The Wolverines go on to play the Gophers for the Championship this evening, right after the Pioneers play the Sioux for third place.
