Varsity Hockey v. Salisbury

On Tuesday December 11, the Eaglebrook School Varsity Hockey team traveled two hours to play the Salisbury School Crimson Knights. Just before the start of the game, former Eaglebrook School Captain Michael McCann ‘07 (now playing on the Salisbury Varsity Team with former Eaglebrook Captain Shawn Manning ’05) stopped by the locker room to give our team some advice and wish us good luck.
The game started out tight but then late in the first period, Salisbury took the lead by scoring to make it 1-0. A few minutes later they scored again to broaden the lead to 2-0. In the second period we scored the momentum shifted back to Eaglebrook and the score became 2-1. With two minutes left in the second period, Salisbury answered back by scoring to increase their lead to 3-1. The team was ready to score some goals at the beginning of the third period, and they were feeling the intensity. Eaglebrook scored a big goal bringing them closer to tying the game up. Then going on the power play with a minute left to play in regulation, Eaglebrook called a timeout to plan their attack. With our goaltender pulled for the extra skater and a six on four player advantage, things would not work out as the clock expired, ending the game with a 3-2 victory for Salisbury. This Saturday, at our McFadden Rink at Alfond Arena Eaglebrook School plays host to the Catholic Memorial Knights at 4:00 PM.
