York 2017
Over President’s Day in 2017, we added a new tournament to our travel team’s schedule; the York, PA 3-day tournament. The home of Harley Davidson, the drafting of the Articles of Confederation, and a Fuddruckers that won the hearts of the team, the city of York was an excellent host venue for this tournament.
We played the Delaware Sled Snipers, the Hammerhead’s Sled Stars, and the Palmyra Black Knights. Three very formidable foes that had years of experience and age on our kids. Our first game started a bit shaky with a tough and decisive loss (7-1). But rather than be discouraged, the team persevered and only allowed one goal against in the third period.
With each game and each period, the team improved their individual skills, earned their rst goals (Isabella and Emma), and most importantly, had our rst game without a single off-sides call. We were led by Josh and Ryan taking turns in goal, and team captain Matt C. leading the way, who brought us close to a comeback. After going down early, the team fought back to within a goal but couldn’t convert on the nal offensive zone faceoff with 8 seconds left.
