State Playoffs, Round Two!

The Fermi Falcon's had their second round state play-off game today..... And are off to Yale for the Final Four in Division 1 hockey Wednesday! They took on Notre Dame West Haven for the right to go play at the Yale "Whale" rink-- a.k.a. Ingalls Arena and played them extremely well, scoring 6 goals against an excellent team and holding them to 4! For a team that has worked as hard as they have, this is a tremendous payback to all the player, parents, fans, and lest we not forget, the coaches! Way to go guys!

As the coaches wife, I know what I am feeling inside during the days before the game, the ride to the game, and throughout the game. I have no idea what the parents in the stands are feeling, but it must be very similar. I am an excited mess and will leave it at that for now!

The Fermi bench, watching the game with much anticipation....

Celebrating after a fantastic goal, cementing their lead....

The Three Troublemakers watching the game from Tyler's usual post, at the railing, down in front.... (Thanks to Papa, Aunt Laurette, and Tyler's favorite cousins for coming to the game!)

FINALLY, game OVER, final score, 6 - 4!

Pandemonioum in the student section-- celebrating with their classmates still on the ice....
