Disappointment at Home


The Bellingham Blazers dropped two in a row during a two-night home stand against the West Sound Warriors Friday, Jan. 18 and Saturday, Jan. 19 at the Sportsplex.


Friday night's match was bitter fought. The Warriors were relentless on offense scoring twice in the first period, five times in the second and once more to cap off the third. The Blazers clawed their way back each period trying to keep up, besting West Sound in shots-on-goal. Unfortunately victory was too far out of reach. Final score 8-5.
