birth to the ACHA
Div III National Tournament to be held March 12th

Friday morning the Vols held off the Ice Bulls from South Florida with a 6-4
victory. Then on Saturday night, they
upended the University of Richmond scoring seven goals for a 7-4
victory. With these two wins, the Ice
Vols were one of only two teams to be victorious in both of their games at
the Regional tournament, and gain a birth to Nationals. The other team to accomplish the feat was
Old Dominion University, who pulled off the upset in their final game,
upending the highest ranked team at regionals, number three Christopher
Newport University. With ODU’s upset
victory over CNU, it gave the Vols the third place seed in the South, and ODU
the fourth. This places Tennessee in
Pool A, with the #1 North seed Hope, the #2 Pacific seed San Diego St
University, and the #4 Atlantic seed Fairfield. Actual game
details will be posted shortly. Cool Cats Sweep

up on the short end on Friday night against the Kentucky Cool Cats. Tennessee grabbed the early lead and was
ahead 3-2 after 20 minutes, but UK came out strong in the third period
scoring three unanswered goals to upend the Vols 8-5. Jones scored one each on the powerplay and
the kill for five points on the night including a hat trick. Jon Benner also had a strong night upfront
for the Vols scoring a goal and two assists.
Joe Williams added the other goal for UT on the powerplay and Chris Neilson,
Ryan Prater, and Chris Bouchard all added single helpers on the night. Joe Gauvin faced 51 shots in taking the
loss in goal for the Vols. On Saturday,
during Midnight Madness the Vols played infront of a sold-out crowd at the
Lexington Ice Center, to boos and mocking chants from the rambunctious
crowd. Kentucky outplayed the Vols for
most of the game outshooting UT 39-16.
Joe Williams had the lone goal for the Vols scoring an unassisted
marker on the Powerplay. Kelsey McLean
suffered the loss in goal surrendering 5 goals on 39 shots. Game Worn
Jerseys!!! ICevols overcome
early deficit to win in ot Feb. 3rd,

recording his second game-winning-goal in as many nights, to help lead the
Vols to a 4-3 victory over Georgia Tech in overtime. Kevin Jones had another big game for the
Vols, recording a point on all four goals.
Despite
firing 15 shots on goal in the first frame, the Vols left the period down
2-0. But they managed to battle back
on a Kevin Jones goal in the second period, before Joe Williams’ powerplay
goal in the early minutes of the third period tied the game. Joe would also score the go ahead goal as
well, before Tech tied the game 12 seconds later. A Georgia Tech hooking penalty
with 13 seconds left in the game lead to the Vols Poweplay in the extra
frame. Kevin Jones
recorded a goal and four assists on the night, Joe Williams finished with two
goals and a helper on the game winner, and Chris Neilson and Chris Bouchard
each finished with a point on the night. Goalie Joe Gauvin also made 26 saves
on the night for his 4th win of the season. The Vols
next home game is this Friday, February 8th, as the opening game of
the Battle of I-75 will take place at 10:30pm vs Kentucky at the Knoxville
Coliseum. Vols Hold on infront of great crowd Feb 2nd,
2008 – With a crowd of over 500 out to watch the Vols at the Civic Coliseum,
Chis Bouchard netted the game winner early in the second period and had
another assist on the night to help lead the IceVols to a 4-1 victory over
the visiting Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
Jon Benner and Chris Neilson both had a goal and two assists each, and
Donald Williams and Kevin Jones both had single helpers on the night. Jones also pleased the crowd with some
spectacular shifts on the penalty-kill to help defend the Vols’ lead. Kelsey McLean stopped 21 of 22 shots on way
to his 17th career victory, moving him into a tie for 6th
all time. The Ice Vols
and staff would also like to thank Panera Bread for sponsoring the game and
all of their courteous donations to the club on the night. The same thanks also goes out to the
Knoxville Ice Bears for their prize donations as well.
