VALENCIA -
Indiana coach Ron Hellen is worried about keeping his team focused as it approaches the playoffs. The Indians have clinched the Northeast Division and have only a few tough tests remaining on the schedule. The Hampton game figured to be a good test for Indiana.
The Indians struck first as Zach Diamond chipped a puck past Troiano at 7:39 of the first. Then Casey Haines scored 41 seconds later with a wrist shot on the stick side to make it 2-0. Hampton got on the board as Chris Fatith scored at 4:03, but the goal was waived off for a delayed penalty.
On to the second and the Indians took charge as Clint Pizarchik was th recipient of a great cross crease feed from Haines to make it 3-0 at 5:20. Mike Lady robbed Hampton's Dave DiSanti at 4:16. Then Haines picked up his second as he walked down the slot and beat Troiano to make it 4-0.
Joe Lenz and Mike Nesper added goals in the third period to make the final 6-0. Mike Lady picked up the shutout as Indiana outshot Hapton 47-39.
