Burrell hockey team aims for Division 2 Challenge Cup

The Burrell Buccaneers lost the Penguins Cup final but still have a chance for glory. They fell 5-1 to Morgantown (W.Va.) at UPMC Lemieux Complex, which was disappointing for the team. However, they are excited about the upcoming Division 2 Challenge Cup, where they have a shot at winning the first state championship for their division. Buccaneers' coach Mike Morascyzk expressed pride in his team's performance this season. They finished with a strong record of 17 wins and 2 losses, scoring a total of 127 goals. Players like Julian Kemp and Luke Mink helped lead the team, but they struggled to convert their chances in the final game. Morascyzk noted that they ran into a talented goaltender and that the team needs to avoid penalties in their defensive zone. He expects the Buccaneers to learn from their playoff experiences and be better prepared for their next opponent from the east. The team remains optimistic as they prepare for the Challenge Cup at RMU Island Sports Center on Saturday. Regardless of the outcome, the Buccaneers will head to California for the club national championships next week, which offers an exciting opportunity to continue their season.
