Woodson Ice Hockey
Interest Club Updates
We hope everyone had a great
Thanksgiving! Woodson Hockey Team had their first home game on Friday, Nov.
17th. It was so great to see so many kids come out and support Woodson Hockey
Team. It really helped the team keep their momentum going! Despite the awesome
crowd and amazing efforts, we lost to Washington-Lee 8 to 4. Sean Stamp had a
great shot on goal but the glove of the Washington Lee goalie was just too
fast. Our goalie Nik Filip had some amazing saves. Alex Buchanan crashed the
net to score our first goal and final goals were scored by the duo of Payton
Andrews and Brett Morrow. Our next game is at home against TC Williams on
Friday, Dec. 1st at 9 pm at Mt. Vernon Rec Center! Woodson Ice Hockey club is
part of the Capital Scholastic Hockey League (CSHL) it is not affiliated with
FCPS.
