The Agony of Defeat

You know the old saying, "It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game." Yeah, right!!!! Try telling that to a goalie that has been scored on four times halfway through the first period, 6 times by the end of that same period, and 9 times by the end of the night.



Such was the case for Washington County goalie Alex Benda last Monday night as his team the Northstars fell to the Glenelg Gladiators 9-3. Now in all fareness, the Northstars were 5 skaters down due to illness and injury, and they are a new team on the scene with only a few seasons on the ice. So it wasn't Alex's fault, nor was it a night to remember. We'll get 'em next game, right?????
