Bears Hockey held their annual Military Appreciation Night on Saturday, December 16th. The team raised $5,343, of which 100% of the proceeds will be donated back to Washington County VFW and US Hockey Players Support our Troops. The game started off quickly with the Bears scoring the first goal, assisted by Preston Filter, less than two minutes into the game. The Bears would find the back of the net about 7 1/2 minutes later with that goal assisted by Reid Newkirk and Stone Daczka. The team then got into a little penalty trouble and gave up 2 goals to make it a tie game at the end of the period. The Bears came out in the 2nd period and Preston Filter scored less than 2 1/2 minutes into the period, which proved to be the game winning goal, final score 3-2.
The Bears then played Homestead in a conference game on Tuesday. Homestead would strike first, taking an early 1-0 lead in the first period. The Bears came back with Reid Newkirk scoring to tie the game, assisted by Stone Daczka. In the second period the Bears would score 3 times with assists coming from Trevor Newkirk and Stone Daczka on a shorthanded goal. Homestead would score one of their own to make it a 4-2 game. In the third period the team would score again assisted by Stone Daczka, skating to a 5-2 win.
