The Tigers are on the attack with a face-off in the Joliet Catholic zone. Concluding the season with a 13-4 mark, the Tigers won their fourth consecutive Joliet Prep Hockey League title. Finishing the regular season in second place, the icemen won the post-season tourney by defeating Lock- port 5-3 and Joliet Catholic 6-0 and 17-1. Following the Tigers' late-season loss to Joliet Catholic, a fight broke out and several players from both teams were given two game suspensions. We play a physical style game, sometimes even too physical, commented Goalie Bob Bennett. Senior Louis Hondros won the league scoring title, while Jeff Kettwig and Kevin Selchert finished second and third. Bennett, Hondros, and Kettwig, Selchert, Dave Kaysen, and Mitch Kurtz made the all-star team. Bennett held opponents to a meager two goals per game. Similar to last season, the Tigers lost in the first round of state competition 8-2 to Pekin. Unlike other teams around the state, the Tigers practice very little because of the lack of facilities. Each one hour practice costs each team member S5 for ice time at Inwood Ice Rink. Faced with several graduating sen- iors, Coach Bob Bennett hoped to pick up some more freshmen who might have been too intimidated to go out for the team. HOCKEY CHEERLEADERS - Front Row: S.
