Saturday Janauary 22, 2011 Austin, Minnesota
After giving away a win on Friday, the Bismarck Bobcats showed a lot of perseverance to earn a 2-1 win. The win was especially big, because the Cats had a lot of injuries in the game. Entering tonight’s game, the Bobcats hadn’t tasted a win in five straight games. The Bobcats needed an unlikely hero to get the job done. His name is Grant Mindt. Early in the game the Bobcats would trail 1-0, but not for long. They would tie the game at 1 on a goal by Bismarcks Brett Bower. He would power it into the net. Early in the third period, Grant Mindt would give his team a minty flavor of victory. Final score, Bismarck to Austin was 3-1 with the win. The Bobcats would snap a five game losing streak earning the 21st win of the year and giving them a total of 45 points for the year. The Bobcats continue their three game road trip on Sunday January 23rd when they travel to Coulee Region for a 6:00pm face off.
