On December 11th, Darien Girls Varsity Hockey had their first game against West Haven. The girls had a great start to the season, winning 4-1. This game is the first glance at the teams great unity and success. The team’s new sophomore goalie Hallie Kreppein did a great job keeping the puck out of the net and new young players such as freshmen Nelle Kniffen, Kate Bellissimo and Catherine Martin were strong on the ice. All new members have proven to be great additions to the team and upperclassman players are coming out stronger than ever.
Captain and senior Sally Cassidy commented on the game, “We played really well for our first game and we were really happy with the outcome.”
The girls next game is on Tuesday, December 19th at Darien Ice Rink versus Morristown-Beard at 4:50 pm. Be sure to show up and support the team to see their great teamwork early on in the season!
