Lonergan First Bomber Trick (and then some)

Newest Bomber, Mike Lonergan, made his presence felt on Tuesday with 4 goals and an assist in the 11-3 rout of the Cyclones. The win was the 3rd of the season vs one defeat and has the organization in good position in the standings.

The ice was sticky at the infamous BSA red rink but the Bombers were able to capitalize on shaky Cyclone goaltending to build a 6-1 first period lead. Bomber captain Bill Auld was not entirely impressed noting, "That was the worst 6-1 period a team could have." Fortunately the Bombers were able to pick up their play and continue the scoring trend even when backup goaltender Givem D. Feivehol took over for the Cyclone starter. "We weren't playing all that well, but we were able to keep scoring" added Bomber forward Bobby Calavano who scored 2g and 3a after 2 games on the dl.




In the third the Cylcones went back to their starting goalie but Brian Leetch type rushes from Mike Gilbert Sr spoiled the return. On one rush Senior got an assist on Rober's tally going end to end in the process.

So the Bombers are building momentum and gelling as a team. "It was good to see Mikey get his hat trick-plus one. I retrieved the puck for the Bomber Hockey Museum!"

Next up for the Bombers- a Tuesday May 11th matchup with the Spartans.
