Simply put, Bailey probably had the best statistical week by any PSU commit since I started doing this feature...not only did Bailey score a hat trick on Friday, it was a natural hat trick...the three goals came in a 7:45 span late in the second period and propelled Omaha to a 3-2 lead after 40 minutes...Bailey scored on every shot he took against the Buccaneers, which isn't a surprise to anyone who has seen him shoot...he followed it up with a second hat trick two days later, this time in a winning effort...Bailey's goals included the tying and go-ahead markers in the third period...after the second hat trick, he said: "It's my linemates. I'm getting a lot of good passes, a lot of good chances. I'm playing with an unreal line right now with (Tanner) Lane and (Jimmy) Murray. They're giving me a lot of good chances. Things are really going in for me"...thanks to this outburst, Bailey is now leading the Lancers in goal scoring and is second in points.

Brooks is earning a repuation (at least with me) as a guy who plays well, even when his team loses...that trait was once again on display versus Sioux City with a pair of assists and a +1 rating...the assists extended his point-scoring streak to its final count of four games...later in the weekend, penalty trouble was the order...he was in the box on a slashing call as Sioux Falls scored the game-winner Saturday and on Sunday, a late high sticking call contributed to Lincoln scoring the tying and winning goals in the closing 46 seconds of the game.

The three women's players from Gilmour Academy have all officially signed their letters of intent.
 |
| ...and they're absolutely PUMPED about it. Catanzariti (left) has the same shirt as me though, which is cool. Just to identify the other two: Whitlinger is in the middle, Zinn is on the right waiting to get the go-ahead. |
Brian Horgan, [GA] Upper School director, asked at Wednesday's signing if the girls planned their actions together, to which they responded "no." All three transferred to Gilmour Academy this school year.Meanwhile, on the ice, the Lancers bumped their record to 10-7-3 with a win (1-0) and a tie (2-2) on Saturday and Sunday against Culver Academy.
"It's kind of neat that you'll all be ending up there," Horgan said.
Penn State will start its Division I women's hockey program next year, so the three girls will be part of the school's first team.
Catanzariti, from Santa Margarita, CA, plays right wing. She earned USA National Championship medals in 2009 and 2010 and participated in USA Hockey Select Player Development Camps in 2010 and 2011.
Zinn, a forward, is from Coquitlam, British Columbia. Playing in Canada last season, she led her team in goals and was third in assists.
Whitlinger, from Huntington Beach, CA, was chosen as best goaltender at the USA Hockey Pacific Division development camp.
