Musketeers begin Clark Cup chase at home; host Fargo in best-of-three first round series

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) – The USHL Regular Season has come to a close as the field of 16 teams in the league is down to 12 in time for the Clark Cup Playoffs. Sioux City begins its Cup Chase at home against defending champ Fargo. Sioux City earned home advantage in the opening round with a strong finish to the end of the regular season, coming away with six wins in the month of March. The Musketeers finished the regular season with the top two point scorers in the league in Landen Gunderson and Giacomo Martino, who is the first Sioux City player in the Tier 1 era to do so. Earning home ice is a product of the work the Muskies put in, but they also have bigger goals ahead. 'It feels really good. Getting home ice advantage is a big deal in the playoffs and hopefully we can have two strong games at home and then go to Lincoln,' Martino said. 'It's a huge advantage. We have great fans and we're excited to play in front of them. It's definitely gonna help us,' Musketeers forward Justin Stupka added. 'We have been very connected. We are a tight group and getting ready for the playoffs is always a big thing,' Musketeers forward Trey Jefferis said. The best-of-three first round begins tomorrow at the Tyson Events Center. Sioux City and Fargo will play Game 2 on Wednesday and a winner-take-all Game 3, if necessary, on Thursday. Game time is slated for 7:05 p.m. for all first round games in Sioux City.
