TRAVERSE CITY, MI - The Alpena Hockey team had numerous offensive chances but could not find the back of the net in a 1-0 loss to Division II #11 Marquette in the North/South Showcase in Traverse City on Friday. After a scoreless first period, the Redmen scored the only goal of the game when Sean O’Connor was able to slide a rebound past Cooper Black. Marquette's Brennan Hakkola would make the lead stand as he made several key stops late in the game, including one through a crowd on Owen Limback as Alpena had the extra attacker. The Wildcats (11-4-1, 3-1-0 BNC) return home next weekend as they host Gaylord on Friday night and Sault Ste. Marie on Saturday afternoon. Gaylord defeated Alpena, 4-1, back on December 29.
