Club Hockey playing for keeps

CONTRIBUTOR
Under the hollowed grounds of hockey and heroism-a.k.a. the bowing wooden arches of Dayton arena-the Bowdoin Polar Bear Club Hockey Team sailed to a victory against Maine Maritime Academy.
When all was said and done, the Bears-humankind at its very zenith -had secured a 4-2 victory. Ryan "Pryme Tyme" Chisholm '04 spearheaded Bowdoin's trident of offense, with two goals and one assist.
Captain, coach, counselor, and comrade Seth Obed '03, another tang in the offensive thrust, scored one goal and added two assists. Filling out the fearsome forked force was flashy first-year Chris Eaton who added a goal and an assist.
All were complimented by the offensive stylings of junior Jason Dundulis' two assists, and first-year Kate Johnson's one assist. John Clifford '04, Adam Kaiser '04, and James Mecone '04 further cemented the offensive might of the Bears.
All the while sophomore Steve Gogolak securely anchored the resolute but youthful defense. And bearing the weight of the game, Corey Hiar '05 staved off defeat with another excellent performance in the goal.
In total, the club team has a 30-plus game schedule, playing teams in the Maine Coastal Hockey League, a local league of collected hockey aficionados and other miscellaneous hockey junkies. They also face other collegiate teams from Colby, Bates and, of course, The Maine Maritime Academy.
In fact, the Bears face off for the second of a three game series against Colby this Saturday, November 9 at 9:00 p.m. So show up for some rock'em sock'em hockey action as the Bears beat the White Mules into submission, with a vengeance.
