The Sault Ste. Marie Blue Devils won their own Showcase this weekend, easily beating two downstate teams at the Pullar Stadium.
The Negaunee Miners, who won just three games all of last year, picked up a win Friday night and nearly won another one Saturday at the Huron Shores Showcase in Alpena.
And the Marquette Redmen opened the 2012-'13 season Friday with a 5-2 win over the Hancock Bulldogs at Lakeview Arena.
Forest Folker (24, pictured) scored a hat trick and Shawn Cornock scored twice to pace the Redman offense in Friday's game.
In Alpena, the Negaunee Miners beat Lapeer East, 10-4, at Northern Lights Arena. Dusty Goupille scored six goals in the game. Cole Francis scored three times for the Miners. Negaunee lost to Utica Stevenson, 8-7, in a wild game on Saturday. In that game, Nate Clisch scored three times and Goupille added two markers for the Miners.
And in the Soo, the Sault Ste. Marie Blue Devils shut out Big Rapids, 5-0, on Friday, before turning back Rockford from the Grand Rapids area, 8-2, on Saturday.
