One Final Game

District Playoffs start today and we finished in 12th within the district. In order to get into the regular district playoff bracket we had to win against Rosemount today. A win would give us two more games, and a loss is the end of our season.

We started strong the first two periods and were up 2-0. Then everything rapidly changed and we were down 2-4. Sam had a beautiful shot on net that everyone thought went in. Unfortunate the refs waved it off. The puck hit the side post then ricocheted off of the top post and out into play. We pulled our goalie in an effort to catch up with Bree coming off of the ice, Sam came flying off of the bench and raced to the action at the Rosemount goal. Things didn't come together and Rosemount scored on our open net.

Front Row: Bree
Second Row: Brooke, Kyra, Maddie
Third Row: Elle, Taylin, Sam, Lexi, Ava, Autumn
Back Row: Olivia

Missing: Coach RJ, Asst Coaches John, Jason and Courtney

The girls were pretty sad after the game with many tears. Not so much that they lost, but because they truly bonded throughout the season and didn’t want their season to be over. The hardest thing for Sam is that we live outside of Hastings so when hockey is over, she loses 11 friends that she has been seeing almost daily for five months, whereas the rest of the team still sees on another at school.

Final Score 3-6 Rosemount


Season 4-10-2
We have lost more than we won but these girls came a long way in the season with the progress they made as individuals and together as a team. I loved watching every game they played.
