St. Ignatius Hockey Rolls over Garfield Heights 11-1 in Brooklyn Playoff Action

BROOKLYN, OHIO – It was another exciting day on the ice in Brooklyn for the OHSAA State Hockey tournaments, at least for the #1 ranked St. Ignatius Wildcats. The Wildcats faced #22 Garfield Heights Bulldogs, and scored 9 goals in the first period alone. After the 6-0 lead, a running clock was implemented for the remainder of the period, and continued on in the second.

    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.
