KALAMAZOO, Mich. -- Even though senior Cameron Rowe's season last year between the pipes for Western Michigan University's hockey team was a good one, the goaltender knew it could have been better.
''The first year, I think, had its ups and downs,'' the transfer from Wisconsin said. ''I didn't start out the way it needed to be in the first half where the team was doing well, we were in a decent spot, but not a great spot.
''Then in the second half, everything came together and we turned it around. The end of the year speaks for itself.
