OMAHA NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

By Roger Kelly 04/21/2021, 10:45pm CDT

Omaha, NE | It was a proud week for MHSHL hockey at the USA Hockey High School National Championships in Omaha. Both the Omaha Jr. Lancers, representing Nebraska, and the Dubuque Saints, representing Iowa, sailed through the first three games of pool play undefeated.

In the Sunday morning quarterfinals, Omaha topped Sun Valley, Idaho, 7-4, and Dubuque defeated Dayton, Ohio, 4-1.

Both teams then advanced to a Sunday afternoon semifinal showdown against each other. Omaha earned a hard fought, 3-2 victory, when Will Volenec scored the game winning goal with only 2:34 left in the game.

Playing their sixth game in five days, Omaha faced off Monday morning against the Capistrano Coyotes of California in the title game. After falling behind 3-0 at the end of the first, the Jr. Lancers clawed back to tie the game in the third and force overtime. Omaha’s Trey Carlson then scored the game winner at 2:25 into overtime to clinch the championship title.

Omaha's win marks the second championship in the past three national tournaments for MHSHL teams. The Sioux City Metros won the title in 2018. The 2020 event was cancelled due to the pandemic.

Congratulations to the Omaha Jr. Lancers, USA Hockey High School Division 2 National Champions, and to the semifinalist Dubuque Saints.

COVID-19 Update - Pertaining to Omaha Hockey Club

By Omaha Hockey Club BOD 03/13/2020, 3:46pm CDT

To all OHC members --

To ensure the safety of all our members, the board has decided to follow the recommendation of the CDC and follow suit with other organizations all around the country and suspend ALL Omaha Hockey Club sanctioned activities until further notice.

Unfortunately, this includes the High School Awards Banquet and our Annual Association Meeting due to their size. As for the Annual meeting and elections, there will be additional information sent out in the coming weeks. We understand the High School players are going to miss out on a great event, especially the seniors. If the virus gets under control and the restrictions loosen, we will do everything we can to reschedule to High School Awards banquet before next year’s season. We believe the players deserve it.

Please know we have thought about the major implications this has on the players and members of the association. However, it is the correct action to cancel all events until further notice. This includes all spring/summer camps or programs. Please be watching our website and your email for updates as we have them.

Thank you, 

Omaha Hockey Club Board of Directors
