how do kids get from here to college and continue playing hockey well I mean that's a good question
and i can answer that as a high school coach now for six years and I can also answer that
as a college coach for ten
uh... just the dynamics of the college game is is has been shifting over
the past five or ten years uh and you don't have to look any further than
right here at fitchburg state where
a lot of players are coming in as nineteen and twenty and sometimes
as twenty-year-old freshmen
uh due to playing ah... uh... whether it's one two or three years of junior hockey
uh... as good as as some of our players are and as good as some of our teams have
been
and that includes and also some of the teams in the area
it's a huge jump
it's a jump very few of them can make um... coming right out of high school
uh... so i'm the junior hockey
is is is a good option for those kids that really want to
play at the next level and might not quite be there yet whether it's size or
ability just certain things that they need to work on
and improve
um... it is a good option for for a lot of kids if if they're
close but not quite there yet
