IN THE ECHL, the season is over for Rochester native Jeff Jakaitis, Red Wing native Reid Cashman and the Columbia (SC) Inferno, who fought back from a 2-0 series deficit against the South Carolina Stingrays to tie the series 2-2, but the Stingrays won the deciding fifth game to end the series and advance to the ECHL's Kelly Cup Finals.

Cashman, by the way, finished tied for 12th in playoff scoring in the ECHL with 3-9--12. And just for Phersy, former MSU, Mankato standout Travis Morin is second in ECHL playoff scoring with 10-5--15. Morin plays for the Stingrays and he'll get a chance to add to his points total in the Kelly Cup Finals.
