WEST VARSITY SCORES UPSET WIN OVER
LEAGUE LEADING NORTH PENN
The Varsity team upset
previously undefeated North Penn
High School on Thursday night on the
stellar goaltending of Jr. Danny Rosenblum who turned away 45 North
Penn shots en route to a 6-5 Bucks
win. After falling behind 2-0,
Nate Routier got West on the board
late in the 1st period...Routier
added his second of the game 45
seconds into the 2nd period followed
by a goal from Jr., Andy McNally 5
minutes later. T.J. Sak scored
the game-tying goal midway through
the 3rd period on a great pass from
Routier...the teams battled at the
opening of the 3rd period, before
the Bucks got the go-ahead
tally from Sr., Chris Leven...Mitch
Ferguson netted what turned out to
be the game-winner with under a
minute left to play...West played
ferocious defense, including, a big
blocked shot by Jr., Matt Wing in
the waning moments of the
game...West was led on defense by
Sr., John Fleishinger and Juniors,
Colin Kreft and Sean Strauss...the
Bucks are now tied for 3rd place in
the American Division of the SHSHL.
JUNIOR VARSITY
The Bucks JV team opened its season with
a 5-4 win over Souderton...despite
playing with a short bench, the Bucks
came up with the hard-fought win...the
Bucks were led in goal by freshman netminder, Alex Ingrassia.
Lenape/Tohickon MS Bucks
The Bucks Middle
School team scored a big victory on
Sunday night defeating Upper
Moreland 11-2. The MS Bucks were
impressive in every aspect of the
game, moving the puck well and
playing smart, unselfish hockey,
forwards Nick Moffat, Jeff Turcich
and Danny Wilson scored goals with
Moffat netting seven goals in the
game. Defenders Darren DeRose,
Nick D'Argenio, Ryan Shapiro and
Chris Parkinson played airtight
defense. Goaltender Max Conway
has been improving steadily every
game, allowing only 2 goals in his
last 2 games...the future of West
Hockey looks bright!
As provided in the
CB West Student/Athlete
Handbook, the varsity
team is for 9th-12th grade students and
is a highly competitive, interscholastic
sport, intended for our most advanced
athletes. Players must try-out for
the varsity team. The JV (8th-12th
grade students) & MS (6th-8th grade
students) teams are developmental and
less competitive. We will
accommodate all players, roster space
permitting.
