Game Recap: Rockers vs. Black Bears 1/10/25

Slow Start Dooms Rockers, Fall to Binghamton 4-2.

By Brady Beedon

Fraser MI - The Motor City Rockers played a strong final 40 minutes. Unfortunately for them, to beat the defending champs, you have to play a full 60 minutes.

Binghamton jumped on the Rockers Friday night in a 4-2 victory.

The Black Bears got the scoring started just under three minutes into the opening period, when Jesse Anderson pinged one off the near post and in to make it 1-0.

Dakota Bohn netted his fifth of the season halfway through the period, extending the Binghamton lead to 2-0.

CJ Stubbs lit the lamp for the third and final Black Bear goal of the opening period.

In the middle period, the Motor City Rockers showed a glimmer of life.

On the power-play, TJ Sneath deflected a Jameson Milam shot past Binghamton goalie Connor McAnanama for the Rockers first goal, bringing the score to 3-1.

However, the Rockers momentum would end there.

3:50 into the third period Black Bear defenseman Camron Cervone picked the top right corner, extending the Binghamton lead to 4-1.

Motor City would get one back, their second power-play goal of the contest when Milam beat McAnanama for the second time, bringing the score to 4-2.

The Rockers pulled Trevor Babin in a last ditch effort to comeback, but ultimately could not penetrate the Black Bear defense, and time would run out, with the final score sitting at 4-2.

Motor City and Binghamton have a rematch scheduled for Saturday night, a 7:05 puck drop for the last time the Rockers take on the Black Bears on home ice this regular season.
