BOWLING GREEN — Ty Eigner’s team took steps forward, and his goaltenders got a taste of playing in a rotation last weekend.
Bowling Green State University’s hockey team left Bemidji State with a split against the nation’s No. 20-ranked team. With a matchup ahead this week against new Central Collegiate Hockey Association member St. Thomas, Eigner was able to see what the goaltending tandem of Zack Rose and Christian Stoever was able to accomplish in back-to-back nights against a tough opponent.
“To open the series and open CCHA play with a win on Friday was certainly a positive, and that has a lot to do with Zack Rose,” Eigner said at Tuesday’s news conference.
