Congratulations to the North American 3 Hockey League West Division Champion Granite City Lumberjacks!

The Jacks tied the game in the final minute and went on to win in overtime this evening and punched their ticket to the Frasier Cup Championship in St. Louis next week.

With that, the hockey season officially comes to an end at Miller Buick GMC rink.

Thank you everyone for a wonderful season and looking forward to welcoming everyone back next fall.
