The River Hawks hit the road this weekend for a crucial two-game series in Idaho Falls against the Spud Kings, and these games carry major playoff implications.

The River Hawks enter the weekend prepared and motivated, looking to carry positive momentum into an important road series. With the playoff race tightening, Friday and Saturday’s games will play a big role in shaping the final league standings.
