Breast Cancer Awareness Month
The Phoenix Polar Bear Squirt A team, donned PINK tape on their sticks yesterday to show their support for those facing Breast Cancer. I played my game yesterday for my cousin Posie, who was diagnosed this month and underwent surgery this past week. My first goal was dedicated to her!
Please visit my American Cancer Society Making Strides page and support me in the fight against Breast Cancer. Together, as a team … we can make a difference. Thank you!
The Buzzy Hook up …
Here is a couple of sweet goals from last weeks Labor Day Tournament. Buzzy feeds a nice pass to me for a top shelf goal and I return the favor.
Polar Bear Squirt A Pre-Season Starts Today!
I hit the ice with my new team mates today. I am the only returning player to the Polar Bears Squirt A Team. Most of last year’s players moved up to Pee Wee.
This year I am playing for Coach Nietzel and Coach Goldberg. We are playing the Jr. Coyotes at 3:40 at Chandler Polar Ice. Tomorrow we are scrimmaging DYHA at the Oceanside Rink. That game starts at 11:15 AM.
Our season starts with the Labor Day Tournament here in Phoenix. All of my games for the season opener will be played at the Ice Den in Scottsdale.
Here we go!

Grand Canyon State Games Champions!
It was a great way to end the 2009-10 Squirt A season, by winning the State Championship Title!!
Murph & Coach Ed Kastelic
At the end of March, the Phoenix Polar Bears played the Jr. Coyotes in the Championship game of the Grand Canyon State Games and won 6-2. It was another amazing victory!
My Squirt A team finished the season undefeated in league games with a record of 19-0.
I had a great season with awesome teammates and an awesome Coach! Coach Ed Kastelic taught me a lot this year, and it was an honor to play for him.
It was a perfect season and I will never forget it!
Jr. A Polar Bears WIN Thorne Cup
While playing for the Phoenix Polar Bears this year, I got to know some of the Jr. A players.

I was at the game in March when they won the WSHL Thorne Cup against the Boulder Bison. We went on the ice to have our pictures taken with the team and the Cup.
My favorite player on the Polar Bears Jr. A team is the goalie Casey O’Connor. After the game, he said I was his #1 fan and he gave me one of his goalie sticks! I am also lucky to have bid on his Breast Cancer jersey and won it.
Casey and the Phoenix Polar Bear Jr. A players are great roll models and hockey players!
