We look forward to another season of exciting ice hockey.  The team experienced many successes throughout the season, with many milestones achieved along the way.  A challenging 0-0-17 record for the 2005-2006 season does not begin to tell the story of the 'Frozen Roses' many successes.   The team was not expected to set the world on fire in its first season as a varsity program, but O’Neill remains optimistic about his team’s chances of being competitive.  "We played teams that were better than us and more talented than us, but my kids have a lot of heart and they leave it all out on the ice every game. They never stopped moving and they never gave up."  

The 2006 - 2007 season will  have 8 returning players and several new incoming freshman that should allow the team to continue to progress in the Blue Division.  The team had 5 freshman sign up for hockey this season. Of those 5 players, there is a wide variety of talent and skill levels —from kids who have travel team experience to kids who are new to the sport.   Coach O'Neill remains optimistic, noting that we are a new program, but I think we are going to come up with a couple surprises this year.   Please come out and support this newest member of the Saint Rose High School sports family!!!
