Senior hockey players are planning on leading the team back to the playoffs to defeat any team that dares to hinder their victorious scenarios. Coach Hogan looks forward to seeing how the seniors perform in their new roles.

“We were excited when they [the seniors] were freshmen,” Coach Hogan said. “It will be exciting to see after three years if they step into the spotlight.”
