08 - A Good Week for Hockey.

Week 08 - Monday 2/16 to Sunday 2/22

Quite the week for hockey. Immediately after work on Monday, we hopped into the car and drove 25 miles in the heaviest rain we've seen this year to watch Matthew’s team compete in the final round of the tournament at his team’s home venue. Despite the weather and afternoon traffic, we managed to get there in time and were treated to a unique California experience consisting of watching a hockey game in clothes soaked by walking from the car to the rink in a downpour. The game was exciting and our team came away with the gold after a well-earned win against strong competition. Even though their win probably didn’t directly inspire both the men’s and women’s USA Olympic hockey teams to also win gold this week, it was a good week for hockey in the USA.
