(WAUSAU, WI)- The Cyclones are set to take on the St. Louis Jr. Blues this Friday at 7:40pm and Saturday night at 5:00pm on NAHLTV. Wausau comes off a solid 4-1 win at Tomah. St. Louis was swept by Peoria last weekend by the score of 8-3 and 5-3. Wausau put together a balanced offensive action last weekend as four players netted goals including first career junior goals for John Kriz and Anderson Brien.
What to Watch For
