Oilers return to Midland

On Saturday February 4th, the Oilers returned to the Midland Civic Center to take on the Tri Valley Titans. Attempting to avenge and earlier 4-1 defeat to the Titans, the Oilers came out of the locker with some hop and took the play to the Tri Valley.

It was the Titans however, who capitalized on an Oiler mistake early in the game to take a 1-0 lead. An inadvertant bounce off the boards and a mis-directed pass caught a few of the Oilers playing out of position and led to a goal that would cause the Oilers to chase the remainder of the game.

The Titans added to it's one goal lead half way through the second and took a 2-0 lead in to the third.

The Oilers lone goal was scored by Nick Coscarelly with assists to Robert bakus and Evan Huber. Sophomore Adam Salisbury suffered a tough defeat making 34 saves on 36 shots. The Oilers now fall to 6-10 and will host Bay City next Wednesday at the Ice Arena.
