JV Hockey v. Deerfield Academy

1/11/2017

The JV hockey team was supposed to play the Keene HN Bantams on Tuesday night, but unfortunately they had to cancel due to an outbreak of the flu. Luckily our friends from across the highway were available on short notice and the DA 3rds team jumped at the opportunity to play us again. The Eagles were looking to avenge their 5-7 loss from last Friday and they went into the games motivated and focused. Despite this, the big green jumped out to a quick 0-3 lead, but the Eaglebrook boys showed resolve and battled back to tie up the game. Deerfield quickly jumped back out to a 3 goal lead and Coach Williams and Bourdon worried that the team would cave, but once again the Eagles dug deep and stormed back making it a 5-6 game. Eaglebrook pulled goalie Henry Cour (who made several huge saves to keep us in the game) and called a time out to strategize how to tie the game up, and was able to pressure the DA goalie (Eaglebrook alum, Alex Leong), but not find the back of the net. Individual high lights from the game were Mason Clarke scoring his first goal of the season and Jack Bradway scoring 2 goals in his first game playing offense. Simba Chen and Ryan Robbins also contributed goals and Walker Craig stepped up in the absence of Ben King. The Eagles are back in action on Friday afternoon at 4pm against Rumsey Hall.
