Wave Puck Crashes on Trinity in Fall League Action

by Mike Cassidy

On Wednesday November 20, The Darien High School Boys hockey team took on Trinity Catholic in a fall league game. The game was played at Terry Connors Ice Rink in Stamford and was also the fall league semi-finals. Both teams had a lot on the line as they both knew the winner would get to play next Monday in the championship. While fall league is not actually part of the season, winning games is still a shared goal for every player on every team in the tournament. Despite both teams having made it to the same point, the balance of skill was very uneven. The Darien High School Boys hockey team thrashed Trinity Catholic, winning by a score of 6-2. Goals came early for Darien as they could quickly taste victory. Early goals came from junior Craig Miller (who later scored another) and senior Connor Davis. Junior Jack Pardue also played a great game as he found Miller twice, leaving the game with two assists. Darien also played great defense, and senior goalie Michael Colon and junior goalie Luke Kostrzewski both playing great games in net to cap it all off. “We worked well as a team and we are looking forward to a successful season,” junior Jack Pardue said when asked about the game. Come support Darien as they play in the Fall League Championship tonight versus the New Canaan Rams, at Terry Connors Rink.
