Always been an Achilles heel for the program; they've been a disaster at FOGO pretty much every year for as long as I can remember. Last year they lost 25 out of 26 against Brunswick and the one win was a violation. Remarkable they've consistently reached the heights they have whilst getting destroyed on face-offs 9 out of 10 times they play another nationally relevant team.

The Prep game they were also missing their top defenseman and another starting attack man. All three were back last night, but everything looked very rusty -- sloppy stick work, and missed shots on wide open opportunities. They can and should improve a ton as guys get back up to speed, but Brunswick should've probably beaten them by more last night given how badly the played.

Anderson looked very good; his shooting stroke seems to have gotten smoother over the last year, and he was a beast on ground balls. He soaks checks as well as anyone, and even sliding hard to the body is no guarantee of success. I think he had 2 goals and either 1 or 2 assists.

Pokorny on the other side definitely looked rusty in his first game of action, but still had 3G, 1A with an insane BTB goal on the run from 10 yards out. We'll see how the flash and flare pans out next year in D1, but at the high school level he's as much of a human highlight reel as I've ever seen.
