Junior Sean Thomas had a stellar weekend for Bates hockey, carrying the Bobcats’ offense through a tough stretch of games. The forward from Mississauga, Ontario scored an astounding nine goals in three games. Thomas had all four goals for Bates in a comeback win over MIT, and again scored every goal in a 3-2 OT win over St. Anselm. The three game winning streak puts Bates within one game of a playoff spot.
