The GCMS Wings suffered their first loss vs Sewanhaka MS by a score of 7-5. It was a hard fought game with a lot of back and forth. The Wings had a chance till the buzzer, but came up a little short.

Walt Holewa had this to say, “While each player gave a 100% effort, missing players caused us to improvise and do things ordinarily we would not of had to. BUT, at the end of the day, we played a Vastly Improved team who had 3 lines we just could not match with our 3 lines….”. He also gave a call out to Arthur Mirante, Thomas Walker and Jack Carozzo for their efforts in the loss.

There are 5 games left and 3 of them are against opponents from the next division up, this will be a good test of how much the team has improved since the beginning of the season.

As we come closer to the end of the season, we begin to look forward to next year, and the loss of our 8th graders. We’ll need to replenish our roster next year with an incoming class of 6th, 7th and 8th graders. If your Hockey (ice or roller) loving child is going to be entering Middle School or is already in Middle School and may want to play next year, please visit the website WWW.GCWINGS.ORG.
