On point, and on pace, for a career milestone.
The grad student forward could reach 200 points when the American Collegiate Hockey Association resumes in January.
Through 21 games, he had 14 goals and 25 assists for 39 points this season, raising his career point total to 196.
Mauro played most of his college career at Slippery Rock, where he had 157 points.

Bouncing back
The Franklin Regional hockey team doesn’t lose very often, but when the Panthers do fall, they have a knack for bouncing back.

Matty Knizner had two goals and an assist, while Brett Bowser, Chase Williams and Luke Lavrich also found the net, and Ben Yurko had three assists for Franklin Regional (8-1).
