Hockey Status: Poor

Tonight was the first game of the 10 game season for Crozer Hockey, we played the University of Pennsylvania.

I think we actually got one or two shots on goal in the second period. Not me, personally, but I did block 3 shots and was only a minus 4.

Apparently the U of P team was really bad last year and so they had a few of the players from their higher division team playing on this team. Minimal consolation in that one.

Oh, and they didn't have a goalie, so in net they had one of the guys who is on staff at the rink.

Our goalie was playing in his first actual game.... ever? You know, aside from street hockey, I think.

As it turns out, this league has a sort of "ten run rule" - like in most softball leagues. We triggered this rule with about one minute left in the second period.

U of Penn: 10
Crozer: 0

The worst team in Crozer history was the "Chester Cheetahs" who played in a Dek Hockey league at Family Fun Spot several years ago. They scored one goal the whole season.

We might give them a run for their money.
