PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Grayson Chopskie is our POW after helping deliver the two game sweep of the D1 Immaculate Mustangs. The senior, has been solid between the pipes this season, consistently putting the Eagles in a position to win and coming up with the big stop when needed. This was the case this weekend as “Chopper” came up big for the Eagles, helping them bring home back to back wins and improve to 9-1-0 on the season
SENIOR NIGHT SUCCESS!
The Trumbull Eagles improved to 9-1-0 with a hard fought 5-4 victory over the Immaculate Mustangs on Senior Night. It was appropriate that the THS seniors lead the way in the come from behind victory over the D1 Mustangs. Owen Finnegan and Jack McLean each had two goals while John Guerrera added three assists and Josh Liebowitz had one helper of his own.
Trumbull graduates nine players this season and they will all be missed. Cody Hickey, Colin Franzen, Jordan Meyer, Ben Grillo, John Guererra, Grayson Chopskie and tri-captains, Josh Liebowitz, Owen Finnegan and Jack McLean.
Eagles Continue To Roll
The Trumbull Eagles improved to 7-1-0 with their 4-2 win over Norwalk. The Eagles have a tough home and home match up with Immaculate (D1) this Friday and Saturday.
PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Junior, Zach Jager has come into his own this season and is playing with the confidence of an impact player. Thus far, the defenseman has been one of the Eagle’s most consistent performers. He is an extremely smart player who sees the ice and moves the puck with the best of them. On a number of occasions this year, he has elevated his play during games when the team needed a jump start or to get the black and gold back on track. One of those occasions was this past weekend against Staples. After a uninspiring first period, the Eagles turned it up in the second and third for a 6-1 win led by Jager who contributed 2 goals and 2 assists from the blue line.
