DU Recruit To Play For USHL Championship

DU Recruit John Lee's Waterloo Black Hawks advanced to the USHL Chamionship Game by defeating Des Moines on Saturday night 1-0 in overtime. Josh Turnbull scored on a power play just 1:29 into overtime in the win over Des Moines, the defending Clark Cup champions.

Des Moines and Waterloo engaged in an extremely tight defensive battle. The teams arguably had no more than a combined handful of quality scoring chances in regulation time, and every time the team had a chance the goaltenders (Matt Dalton of Des Moines and Ryan Rondeau of Waterloo) were up to the task.

The 2007 USHL Clark Cup championship game will get underway Sunday night at 7:05 p.m. The game can be watched live through B2 Networks or followed with online live audio at http://www.ushl.com/.
