College Hockey Alabama

At the post-game presser, here’s Coach’s comment, as reported by INCH:

It marks the Chargers second CHA title and the senior class of Tom Train, Cal Tanaka, Kevin Morrison, Brennan Barker, and Brandon Roshko’s second championship after winning the 2007 crown, also in overtime. They took number one seed Notre Dame to double overtime before falling at the NCAA Midwest Regional in Grand Rapids, Mich.

“I don’t want to say we backed in; we won a championship so we deserve to be there,” Cole said. “If you get in, you earned it. Obviously, we’re going to play a number-one seed and a heck of a team, but we’ll battle. We’re not just going there to enjoy the experience.

“It’s officially now College Hockey Alabama; we’re changing the name.”

I guess we have to go get shirts printed up between now and next Friday, eh?
