SQB2@Skaneateles - Warmup and First Period
Eagles SQB2 taking on Skaneateles Lakers, game time 5:15pm.
The Lakers look big and excited. They are stretching in one of the corners.
Gorgeous facility here, a big pool, fitness center, ice rink. Fairly new and in top shape.
The Eagles look good; there was a lot of noise from them comming out of the locker room so hopefully that translates into some good first period energy.
I'm sitting on the wrong side of the rink to have the benefit of the WiFi connection. Should have brought the cowbell . . .
Looks like wide range in talent from the Lakers, some kids throwing good passes and doing crossovers, others not so well. 40 seconds left in the warmup.
Here's the starting lineup: McCauley at center, Ruperrt and Popp on Wing, Cardinale and Ralph on D, and Newton in goal. Lakers win the faceoff but Popp is up, Eagles ahve in in the attacking zone, but here's Lakers on a breakaway, Newton poke checks no shot.
Eagles take control and it's out but they lose it in the neutral zone. Now the Lakers have it, a shot across the crease, two shots, no goal.
