Darien JV Hockey Tops New Canaan 6-4

By Sam Hickey

Last Monday December 15, the Darien Blue Wave junior varsity hockey team took on fierce rivals New Canaan at Stamford Twin Rinks at 3pm. The game was a high scoring one with ten goals scored in total, six to Darien and four to New Canaan. New Canaan has always provided intense competition for Darien and that day was no different. The game was also an extremely aggressive one with many penalties being issued to each team, according to sophomore Colby Ravosa “It was a pretty physical game, bodies were flying everywhere”. This game provided no lack of excitement for teams that were usually very strong defensively. But in the end Darien was able to pull through having scored enough goals to pull out the win.

When ask why he thought Darien was able to out score New Canaan Colby Ravosa added that “ I think we were able to score so many goals because their goalie couldn’t stop our shots because New Canaan's defense left him wide open to our attacks”.

Come support the JV hockey team at their next game on 12/30/14 at Dorothy Hamill Ice Rink.
