West Ottawa Panthers retool for tough regional run
West Ottawa enters a 5-5 start through 10 games as a young roster rebuilds after graduating 10 players. Coach Nick Biondo cites early losses to Marquette and opener as learning moments while captains Tommy Buis and Luke Smart lead the squad through conditioning and adaptation. Buis plays through a broken hand and emphasizes passing and stick handling as freshmen and veterans step up. Linart notes the December Marquette trip revealed a tougher, more physical level, with several freshmen earning meaningful minutes behind a three-goalie rotation as the defensive corps remains young.
