Announcement
The Eagles will open the 2007-2008 season this Wednesday at home against the Watertown / Pomperaug Co-op. In preparation, Trumbull scrimmaged Daniel Hand HS, North Branford and participated in the jamboree hosted by The Rinks.
Trumbull lost to Hand, which scored two late third period goals, 4-1. With senior, Jake Watson out of the line-up due to illness, the Eagle defense was made up of four freshmen and returning sophomore, Dale Elbert. Andrew Oxfeld looked sharp but received little help from the Trumbull offense.
The offense looked better against North Branford but failed to capitalize on some good scoring opportunities. Freshmen Andrew Vietze and Andrew Pierson put in solid performances and "Ox" again looked good giving up only one goal. Junior, Stephen Anrico let up two. Brian Sarosky's goal was the only tally as the Eagles fell 3-1.
Trumbull lost to Greenwich 1-0, tied Wilton 1-1 and lost to Watertown 2-0 in single period play during the Jamboree. Again, the young defensemen and goaltenders played well but THS struggled to break out of their zone and failed to get enough pucks at the opposition net.
