Fort Wayne Komets win Turner again

Komets beat Jacks, claim back-to-back Turner Cup titles

For the first time in their 57-year history of professional hockey, the Fort Wayne Komets are back-to-back champions.

The Komets, the regular-season champions in the International Hockey League, added the Turner Cup championship on Friday night with a 4-1 victory over the Muskegon Lumberjacks. The Komets won the best-of-seven series 4-1 and that set off a celebration among the 10,480 spectators at sold-out Memorial Coliseum.
