Trumbull Eagles Hockey

The Trumbull Eagles will be led by two year captain, Sam Watson.  The defenseman brings skill, toughness and character to the THS line-up.  He is the standard to which all THS skaters should emulate.  Sam's older brothers, Cory and Nick were also Eagle captains. 

Two year alternate captain, Jake Crowe gives THS a great one-two punch on defense.  He brings a high skill level and has excellent offensive insticts from the blue line.

Senior, Nick Cirino will also wear an "A" this season.  The hard working winger will be looked upon to add offense and leadership this season. 

The Trumbull Eagles finished the first half of the season with the toughest stretch of their FCIAC schedule, facing four top ranked D1 teams.  The THS skaters lost to Greenwich (2-3), Darien (4-5), New Canaan (2-7) and Ridgefield (1-4). Trumbull ended the first half of the season with a 3-7-0 record playing seven road games and losing three games by a one goal margin.  The Eagles will need a strong second half push to get the eight wins needed to qualify for the CIAC state tournament.
