The hockey team’s last match on January 9 didn’t go as smoothly as they would have liked, losing to the Orange Lions, 7-2.
However, they made up for that loss in their game this past Thursday night when the Stow Bulldogs came to town.
The starting line-up for the match was made up of Ian Krall, Nick Baldwin, Aaron Wrost, Alan Fernandez, and Gavin Supek. Jason Edmonds (illness) was back in goalie for the Canes.
In the first period, Supek scored a total of three times (having made the first goal of the night as well), and Wrost scored once. Stow scored one goal as well.
Two of these goals occurred because the Bulldogs received a hooking penalty. During this two-minute power-play, the Hurricanes scored twice making the score at the end of the first period, 4-1.
The Hurricanes put up a good fight and had great defense in the second period keeping the puck on Stow’s side of the ice and maintaining their three-goal lead.
The third period was uneventful as neither team scored.
Coach Wrost stated, “The first period of the game was a good game of hockey, but after that, there was nothing interesting, and the game was kinda blah.”
Nick Finn said, “I feel pretty good about it [our team’s performance], but you never know what is going to happen.”
The next game will be on Thursday, January 23, against Lakewood High School. The match will be at 7:30, and it is a home game, so be sure to come out and cheer the boys on!
