The 2015 hockey season has wound down and McCreary Student Council organized an annual student vs. staff hockey game. The students from grades seven to 12 participated in the festivities at McCreary Centennial Arena.
The event concluded student council鈥檚 recent spirit week activities for the school. All the students who didn鈥檛 play in the game, from grades kindergarten to 12, came to cheer on the teams.
As soon as the players stepped foot on the ice, music began to play and the crowd went wild as their favorite players came to have some fun. The students held the lead for the majority of the game, going into the third period up one goal. The score at 6-5 didn鈥檛 last long, as the staff quickly made their comeback. The third period was action packed. After 20 minutes of end-to-end action, the staff completed their third period comeback winning the Petrin Cup 11 -9.
The annual student staff hockey game has a long tradition dating back to 1998 and the yearly game continues to be a great success for the school. We would like to thank the student council members: Wyatt Tereck (president), Lauryn Dunning (vice president), Kelsey Mutch (secretary) and our staff advisor Mrs. Joaney Lockhart for helping putting together a great event. We would also like to thank all the fans, students, and staff that participated in the game. Everyone had a very entertaining day at the rink.
