Mercyhurst is from Erie Penn, on one of them BIG lakes. ;-)
The name Lakers has more to do with the ore boats that run on the great lakes.
As for who should have the name Lakers, consider this confusion.
The GLIAC Great lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference
has in it for football, basketball, volleyball etc.,
3 teams named the Lakers. LSSU, Mercyhurst and Grand Valley.
2 are located on the great lakes, Grand Valley is inland, but from the
great lakes state of Michigan.
Enough of the geography lesson for today, returning you to your regularly
scheduled hockey info list.
