Team Set for Historic Road Trip

From USHL.com

Just a little over two months ago, the Waterloo Black Hawks were competing in a thrilling Clark Cup Final series. The focus has shifted to the 2012-13 hockey season, but before the puck drops on another USHL campaign, there will be Black Hawks hockey in August.

The Black Hawks will participate in the 2012 Junior Club World Cup in Omsk, Russia from August 18-26, the first USHL team to compete in a major international tournament first held last summer. The short offseason got even shorter for the Black Hawks, but you won’t hear anyone in Waterloo complaining.

“We feel like our guys are ready to go,” said P.K. O’Handley, Head Coach and General Manager of the Waterloo Black Hawks. “Obviously we are not anywhere near being in game shape, but the nuts and bolts of our team – we have them in place.”

Things are in place, but this time they are in place a month earlier than years past.
