AHC Concludes Outdoor Game Series

Last night AHC concluded its outdoor series of games at the Jack Kirrane Rink in Brookline. This was the first year we were able to procure a number of game sheets at the rink so members could experience playing outdoors. Because we had a limited number of available times for the entire club, we distributed those to the older teams first, then offered them to younger teams if an older team couldn't use their time.  

Last night the mites scrimmaged at 5:30PM and got to play for a longer time as the group coming in after them had cancelled and the rink let them play longer.  

The final game of the series pitted AHC against Wellesley in a friendly scrimmage, starting at 8:30PM. Both teams skated hard, got a lot of ice time, and overall had a great time playing!
