Then a minute and a half later Melissa C. put a Alexa Q. rebound in the back of the net. The final tally was Rachel L. second of the night assisted by Alexa Q..
Coaches Quote: “We got off to a shaky start, I think there was some first game jitters. After that we settled down and began to handle the puck with more confidence. Our skating improved as the game went on too. We were definitely in better physical condition that became evident by the mid-point of the second period. We have a lot of things we need to do better but for opening night I’m very pleased with our team. It’s always nice to get the first win of the season.”
“We would like to say a special thanks to the members of the guy’s hockey team who came out to support us on opening night."
