Sucks to the Three Stars you may have already posted, Isaac.  Here’s my take on them stars.

THIRD STAR
Team WTP

Playing two games in a day is never a great situation. And WTP pulled the short straw by having the first game and last game of the day. They were troopers. They pulled together a team for both games while having fun at the courts throughout the day. Mike D. from the team also stepped in to ref a game when we were short.

A shout-out to Demons, Anklebiters and Butchers who also had double hockey fun this past Sunday, as well as the refs and other league members who arrived for the early start.

SECOND STARS
Zach N. (Math) and Diane J. (Gut Rot)

This BTSH couple has joined a select group of BTSHers by getting hitched. One BTSH historian estimates that about 5-10 couples that have met on the courts have gotten married.  They reminded us what this league is really about (and it’s not hockey) as league members from across many different teams attended the celebration in Maine.

Congrats to the happy couple! And if the two of you had made it back in time to play in your games it would have been a 1^st star.

FIRST STARS
The Comeback Kids

Sometimes our bodies just don’t let us play hockey and the road to recovery can be long. This past Sunday we saw three players return to the courts – Coco (Anklebiters), Adam (Demons) and Cody (Gremlins). These kids have been waiting to get back to playing and even notched some goals. We’re glad to have the three of you (and anyone else we might have missed) back and wish a speedy recovery to anyone that is still on the mend.

Honorable Mentions:

The refs: with the ref schedulers out of town getting married, many refs (old and new) stepped up to the plate to ensure that the show went on.

Skaterboader Kids (hockey wannabes): These kids created quite a bit of excitement on the West Court and it truly wouldn’t be NYC without them.

Those people that got a hat trick: Hicks, Rush, D’Angelo, Sullivan. We suppose that you played some good hockey.
