Beginning the Bantam Elite League’s Minor season with four consecutive losses wasn’t what Wisconsin had in mind, but the slow start did little to deter the group. 

Wisconsin picked up its sixth and seventh consecutive victories on Sunday, earning the league’s championship with a dominant 7-0 victory over the North Stars. 

Powering the win for Wisconsin on Saturday were Cade Kozak and Cullen Potter, who each scored a goal and dished out two assists, and Ty Bashaw, who scored two goals in the contest. Sam Kappell, Mason Peapenburg, and Michael Mikan added one goal apiece to round out Wisconsin’s scoring summary, while Zach Schave and Aidan Kaiser combined to stop all 15 shots the North Stars put on the Wisconsin net. 

In a testament to the balance of Wisconsin’s attack, four players totaled 14 or more points in the team’s 11 games, with every skater recording at least one point throughout the season. The team never scored less than three goals in a single game and outscored their playoff opponents by a staggering total of 23-5. 

Forward Cullen Potter was named the league’s Most Valuable Player, registering seven goals and 11 points during the playoffs. In total, Potter racked up eight goals and 15 points in six games played finishing second on his team behind Joey Argentina and Bryce Wiitala, who scored totaled 16 points.
