Today was a big day for our hockey team because the NCAA Tournament started for Women's Ice Hockey.
We were very fortunate to make it to the tournament this year because we weren't as good this year as in years past. Our first opponent is the same team we beat in the opening round last year, the Boston University Terriers.
Boston University has this girl that's a Senior from Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia who's a defenseman. She's really good. She has to be, because she has international experience with team Canada. I waited for the day that we would play Boston University, so I could see this girl in action.
When the puck dropped, the terriers won the face off. Alexis Crossley, the the Senior from Halifax, Nova Scotia, came through center and passed the puck to Maddison Elia. Elia came down the right wing side and around the net. She tried to center the puck but the play was broken up by Kayla Messer, who passed the puck to Brianna Baker.
Baker went flying through the neutral zone and into the Terrier's zone. She passed it to Brittany Colbertson, who took a shot from the left wing side.
The Terrier's goalie made a blocker save and the puck went out of play. The entire game went like this, back-and-forth.
It came down to the final moments. We were scoreless. My line was on the ice and we had the puck.
Ashley Colbertson, Brittany Colbertson's sophomore sister, had the puck in our zone. She passed the puck to Casey Krieder, Chelsea Krieder's sophomore sister, and she came flying down the right wing side. Casey passed the puck to Anna, who passed it to me for a one-timer. I took a shot and watched as the puck went past the goalie and into the net. WE WON! WE'RE GOING TO THE FROZEN FOUR!

There won't be an update tomorrow because I will be in NYC with my family and won't have access to my notebook where I have this story written. I will try to update on Saturday when I get back.
