Way to work as a team and find the back of the net! In the past three games our Bantam AE's have found that sweet spot 8 times building the team's confidence and showing once again how far this team has come over the season.
Reflecting back over the season; to those outside The Bantam AE circle looking at our record, may shake their heads or share an eye roll. What they don't see is the sweat, dedication and hard work these young men have put into their team. It is easy to forget this is a team of boys that had tough previous seasons, played local league, and a few who have never played travel before. A team reuniting a couple players but overall not a lot of playing experience with the mix of boys who made up the team.
Boys who have heard you can't in the past given the ice time and support and told yes you can. Every player on this team has evolved some aspect of their play which I don't think many other team can claim. Our Bantam AE Shamrocks are hockey's Little Engine that could. They have worked their tails off all season and are just cresting the mountain top about to hit their peak at the perfect time, heading into the playoffs. Teams who faced us the last couple games have underestimated us and their frustration with not coming out with an easy win has and will continue to work against them on the ice.
I know I have written it before but I am so proud of this team. I am excited to see what they will bring into the playoffs. Remember Rocks you got this far as a team stick to what you have been doing and lets see how many teams we can upset during the process!
GO ROCKS GO!!!
