Ohio University’s men’s hockey team has had a great season thus far. As of Nov. 19, the Bobcats are 17-2 and are on an eight-game winning streak. Much of the Bobcats’ success can be attributed to Head Coach Dan Morris. Speakeasy sat down with Morris to find the reason for his team’s success and, of course, to talk some hockey.
