The Comet ice hockey
team kept the offense moving throughout the game, but wasn’t enough to defeat
the Talawanda Braves Sunday morning, losing 3-2.
Head coach Seth
Knudsen said that he was thrilled with the performance, despite the loss.
“When we played
Talawanda on Friday, it was a completely different game,” Knudsen said. “In
terms of how we played, our positioning was better, we did everything better. I
know that it’s a 3-2 loss, [but] it could’ve been a 3-2 win.”
Knudsen also said
that the team’s general inexperience with close games was a factor in the close
defeat.
“Some of our kids
have not been in a close game… so you could see some of the players that have
experience in these types of settings, and they stepped up, but also we had
guys like [Nathan] Davis and Brandon [Barnes], they didn’t have a lot of
experience, but they played well.”
Knudsen also said
that a competitive game against Lakota East next Friday should be expected.
“[Lakota East is] going
to be fast, they're going to be skilled, they're going to be well coached, so
it's going to be a challenge. But it's fun, it always is fun when we play
them.”
