The SUCOL Hockey team opened up the Fall 2014 season this past Monday night with a convincing 6-3 win over the Easton Fections, who was one of the better teams last season. It was a full team effort with a member of each class tallying a goal (Fleishman - 1L; Amelia - 2L; Pappy - 3L). Obviously, the team's off-season workout plan has already paid off. Everyone looked to be in great shape and everyone backchecked.
But, the real story of the game was the impeccable goaltending of 3L Danny Neer. The kid was absolutely lights out and only let in those three goals because he felt bad for the other team. What is the method to his madness? "Honestly, every time the other team comes down to my end I just close my eyes and pray that they miss the net," said Neer after the game. "This has been my technique since I was a squirt in B-ville, so if it ain't broke I don't plan on fixing it." 2L Dan Greene was asked to comment on Neer's play, but was unavailable since he was still catching his breath 30 minutes after the game.
Here are some of Neer's highlights from the victory:
