My name is David Alachniewicz. I am the one who scored the one and only goal for Garfield. It was my first ever goal. I had just learned to skate that season. I went 6 years watching my brother play hockey and I finally got a chance to play. We didn’t win many games but we had fun playing with our small group. I then went on to chear Iggy for the last 3 games they played. I was so happy for them when they won the championship.
