i really blame our coaches. they were horrible. with young guys they should have pulled us aside and calmed us down and gave us pointers and thoughts like . . . put the puck on net. dont skate in too fast, etc...

funny how sports moments and thier details stay with you. i can replay that shot and a ton of other sports moments like i have it saved on video or something.

Technically, the games were only 7 innings in High School. So no no going into the 7th.

I rarely got the start. I was usually the closer. But because our starters had pitched their max innings for the week, I got the start.
