A Total Mismatch !
Tuesday's game between the RVC Spartan's and the Bellmore/Merrick B team was a total mismatch right out of the starting gate.Why the league has us playing a "B" team when we are in the "A" division makes no sense what so ever! Besides the 10 -2 victory by the Spartan's the one good thing besides the win,was that playing a "B" team, the 6th grade player's get to play more and gain some confidence playing in this league.Due to the competitive playing of the "A" division a lot of the 6th graders find it hard to keep up with a lot of the 8th graders. But playing with 8th graders in the "A" division throughout the season makes it a little easier for the 6th graders to play with the "B" division teams.
The scoring for the Spartan's started right at 14:35 of the first period,with Spartan's leading scorer Andrew Cardi.It continued with 7 unanswered goals from Peter Piekarski 1,Andrew Cardi 3,Brenden Daly 3. In the third Shane Douglas added to the score with 1 and Andrew Cardi with another 2 for a total of 10 goals.Cardi alone had 5 goals! The defense was solid and Brian Albertsen was solid in goal. Thinking back to my original sentence I guess it does make sense after all it was a good practice session for the 6 th graders on our team.
