Squirt A Phoenix Polar Bears WON the Coyote Cup at the Alltel Ice Den today beating the Jr. Coyotes 10-2 in the Cup Final.
Phoenix Polar Bears Come up Short
I had a full weekend of hockey. I played in four games in two days for the Polar Bears. We played teams from Anaheim, Vancouver BC and San Diego. Our last game today was against the Vancouver Winterhawks. We played the Winterhawks tough, through the second period.
In the third we let up a couple of goals and eventually lost 5-2. Tough weekend!!
Our next tournament will be in Scottsdale over Christmas Break. Until then its practice! practice! practice! and a few Sonora League games and scrimmages to play in the next few weeks.
Yesterday, my teammates Logan, Trent and I had lunch and watched a tournament hockey game at Jobing.com Arena. Some of the teams were lucky to play on the Coyotes ice before they took on the Dallas Stars last night (and WON)!!
I am going to sleep in tomorrow, wish I was playing hockey!

PHX Polar Bears Making Strides Walk
Saturday was an amazing morning in Tempe, AZ! I joined some
of my teammates from the Phoenix Polar Bears and walked 3.26 miles to support the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, there was almost 10,000 walkers!
With the support of my family & friends, I was able
to raise $230 for the cause! At the very end of the event, I met a Breast Cancer Survivor and she praised us and thanked us for walking.
The Jr. A players were waiting and cheering us on at the finish line. The Phoenix Polar Bear Jr. A Team will be
wearing Limited Edition Pink Jersey’s for 12 hockey games. They are holding an AUCTION, so you can purchase the PINK jersey of your favorite Jr. A player with ALL proceeds going to the American Cancer Society, the auction ends December 5th. Go Polar Bears!!
