Last Thursday, the Brooklyn Hurricanes hockey team (1-1) faced off against the Twinsburg Tigers.

The Hurricanes came out strong with senior Gavin Supek scoring the first goal within the first two minutes. Supek’s goal set a strong, aggressive pace for the rest of the game.

This game was physical, and many players got knocked down. One player from Twinsburg was knocked down and was eventually escorted off of the ice.

The first period ended with a score of 3 – 1, with the other two goals scored by senior Aaron Wrost and another by Supek.

The energy picked up even more in the second period with Supek scoring two more times, twice in the first ten minutes. The Canes aggressiveness kept up throughout the game. Aaron Wrost and his brother, freshman Derek Wrost, both scored goals bringing the score to 7 – 1. 

The third period featured junior Jacob Peña’s first goal of his hockey career.

Head Coach Mike Wrost touched on this.

“I’m happy for a number of reasons. One, we beat another team in our league, which is very important… and we had some guys score their first goals [Pena and Derek Wrost] of their high school careers, so that’s important to have those guys participate and be a part of the team.”

While the game was aggressive, Coach Wrost believes that the Canes need to work on being physical and aggressive during all games.

“They [Twinsburg] were hitting us quite a bit, and we weren’t doing the same to them, so that’s one thing all of our players need to work on.”

The final score was 8 – 1. Simply, it was a great win for the Brooklyn Hurricanes hockey team!
