MISSED OPPORTUNITIES
The Eagles went 1-2-0 during their trip North. The Eagles opened the Heuchling Swift Tournament with Oyster River, a rematch of last year’s final which the Eagles won 3-2. The Trumbull skater s came out flat in the first, playing better as the game went on but costly turnovers and lack of scoring were their undoing in a 1-4 loss.
Trumbull played a much better game against Marshwood (D1 Maine) but again had trouble capitalizing on their chances. THS could not protect their 1-0 lead allowing two goals in the final few minutes for the eventual 2-1 loss. This loss not only hurt the Eagles’ overall record but also the opportunity for D1 power points and a crack at another D1 Maine school (Keene) on Friday.
The Eagles rounded out the tourney with a 5-3 win over Portsmouth. Trumbull returns home at 2-3-0 on the season with Wilton and Norwalk on deck.
PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Senior, Austin Ashby is our POW for week #1 of the 2022-2023 season. The center is off to a good start scoring in each of Trumbull’s first two games. Ashby has put his improved strength and speed on display. This along with his quick release make him a dangerous scoring threat for the Eagles.
Ashby will serve as one of Trumbull’s team captains this season.
Player of the week will be posted on Mondays.
