PROWLERS ALUMNI GAME:
The Ice Prowlers started a new tradition in the 2006-2007 season with the Chris Miller Prowler Alumni Game. The first two games had great turnouts with the varsity team defeating the alumni team 6-4 in 2006-2007, and the alumni winning 7-5 in 2007-2008. This season the alumni dominated with a 9-2 victory on 12/17/2008, behind 4 goals by Cody Berkebile (2007 Pickerington North) and 3 goals by Nick Hess (2007 Pickerington Central). Justin Lohrman (2007 pickerington North) played solid in goal for the "old guys", backstopping the team to victory. Prowler Hockey was happy to have so many players and families return and look forward to next year's alumni game.
