2021-22 Week Five Recap

Week 5 took place earlier tonight with the undefeated Seals taking on the desperate to get a win Hornets. The Seals were without key players to their team. Captain/Goalie #42 Dean Olivia's and defensemen #5 Andrew Calvin were both absent. The Hornets were also without one of their star forwards #8 Clay Martin leaving the burden of getting the first win for their team on Captain #23 Katie Frayer and #45 Kevin Konfara.

With both teams missing key players it looked to be that a high scoring battle was going to take place and that is exactly what happened. The Seals came out fast scoring the first two goals and ending the 1st period 7 - 5. The 1st period was actually the Seals roughest period, although they seemed to settle down and maintained control of the game throughout the following two periods. #39 Anthony Theuer was sharp scoring 8 goals/1 assist. Fellow Seals teammates #28 Jordan Zmich scored 3 goals/1 assist and #69 Alex Ernsberger had another solid game for his team netting 2 goals. The Hornets had good plays as well with #45 Kevin Konfara having another amazing outing with 6 goals/3 assists and fellow forward #55 Jeff Fleshner had 3 goals/1 assist.

Despite some mistakes in the 1st period, it was the Seals high pace and solid teamwork that just seemed to give the Hornets a really difficult time in gaining any sustained momentum throughout the game. The final score was 14 - 9. The Seals end their four games undefeated with a comfortable 3-0-1 record having 7 points. The Hornets are still looking for their first win, sitting at 0-3-0.
