Just eight days removed from the first meeting between Bowling Green and Adrian in program history, the two squads will go head-to-head once again. In the first game between the two teams the Falcons led the whole way, but a late surge by the Bulldogs cut the deficit. Adrian was able to net two scores in the third period against the Falcons, including one on the power play.
Even so, Adrian was held to just 20 shots on goal in the game while the Falcons handed the Bulldogs their first loss of the 2020-21 season.
