This year's season witnessed the emergence<br />

of talent and promise for future seasons.<br />

Standouts included Chris Grace with<br />

his ability to skate, stickhandle and set up<br />

plays. Brendan McKiernan's team spirit and<br />

play making and brother Dennis' all-out hustling<br />

stood the team in good measure. John<br />

Holzach brought in the crucial goals while<br />

Bill Blabe, with his stinging shot from the<br />

point, pounded the oppostions' nets. Defense<br />

was in the capable hands of Tony LaScala<br />

and Eddie White. The goal was ably<br />

defended by Mike LaPetina.<br />

Mid-season additions like Steve Jones<br />

and Lou Demchuk aided veterans Tim Singleton<br />

and John Aglio, the team's captain.<br />

Mr. Patrick Moran, the team's coach, lent<br />

not only skillful direction but the kind of encouragement<br />

and support players need.<br />
