A win is a win, no matter whether it is a coach's first or his 400th.

Coming off accomplishing the latter, Icecats head coach Leo Golembiewski hopes to win his 401st game tonight when UA faces the Delaware Blue Hens in Newark, Del.

The Icecats will start freshman Jason Morgan in goal, who has played well of late in some rare starts.

The Icecats will hope to avoid a letdown after Golembiewski's 400th win celebration.

"I had some friends in for the win," he said. "But you can't plan things like this."

With the graduation of only three seniors, the Blue Hens have a solid foundation of upperclassmen.

Delaware returns top scorers Brett Huston, Greg Barber, Jef Milota, Ryan Sklar and last year's East Coast Hockey Association Playoff leading scorer Brooks Barber.

The No. 4-ranked Icecats hope to stay undefeated on the road this season. A sweep of Wisconsin-Whitewater and a victory over Marquette on Sunday, not to mention a sweep of Arizona State two weeks ago in Tempe, has set the Icecats up for a run at the American Collegiate Hockey Association's national championship, which takes place March 3-6 in Delaware.
