O'Schrock on O'Fire

Personally, I like how on the Komets' special St. Patrick's Day jerseys, all the players' names are preceded by Os.

As in ... O'Syroczynski, O'Beauregard and O'Schrock, who has accounted for two goals so far.

Lincoln Kaleigh O'Schrock averaged 15.7 goals per season in his first three seasons. He came into tonight with only six.

But he scored on a 20-footer and on a prayer from the right boards, and the Komets lead the Greenville Road Warriors 2-1 after the first period at Memorial Coliseum.
