Phoenix Polar Bears Come up Short

November 28, 2009 By Leave a Comment

IMG_0598I 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!
