Coming off of a record of 4-6 last year, and 2-8 from the year before, the River Hill Ice Hawks are looking to make major improvements for their upcoming season. Led by captains Jack Millstein and Toni Smith, the team is looking for not only a winning record, but for a deep playoff run, and potentially a county championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ice Hawks are full of veteran seniors (Jack Millstein, Payton Howell, Toni Smith), and juniors (Chris D\u2019Antonio, Sabry Roy, Iain Snoddy, Eric Roth, Geena Lin, Evelyn Dzubak and Jason Benedek) with tons of experience in Howard County ice hockey. The team lost no seniors from last year, meaning they will keep the same roster as they did before but with an addition of some new freshmen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The players could barely wait to lace up the skates again and hop on the ice. Chris D\u2019Antonio is excited to go out and have fun. \u201cI\u2019m just excited to put some pucks in the net and throw my body around.\u201d Jack Millstein explained that he is looking forward to \u201cseeing how far our Varsity team goes this season.\u201d The team had their first game October 27, 2021 and are eagerly anticipating their upcoming games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Millstein further elaborates on his excitement for the season when he says, \u201cWe have a lot of talent on both offense and defense. We just have to figure out how to utilize that talent against strong teams like Marriotts Ridge. But with a tight team like ours, I think anything is possible this season.\u201d The 11 game schedule will be a complete grind for the team. However, sophomore Andrew Handleman is confident as ever, \u201cIt should be fun to beat Glenelg this year.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When looking back at his time playing for the hockey team, Millstein says, \u201cI\u2019ve had an amazing time on the River Hill hockey team. Since my freshman year I\u2019ve never not enjoyed a season, even when we weren\u2019t as successful as we hoped.\u201d In addition senior Leila Schmidt, a fan of the team, said, \u201cI enjoy supporting the team.\u201d She also explained, \u201cI would like to see more students at the games.\u201d To find out more about the River Hill hockey team and to view their schedule, see the link below: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
