Soph, Preston Ferro battles against SJR
Barely a week had gone by since the Ironmen lost the State Football final to SJR, but Bosco Hockey was determined to right the ship and start the hockey season on the right foot. Facing a very talented St Joseph Regional team, the Ironmen and Green Knights were deadlocked at zero halfway through the second when SJR struck first, taking a 1-0 lead. However, there was no panic in the Ironmen, when they returned to the ice for the thrid period. Playing solid two way hockey, the Ironmen tied the game a little over 3 minutes into the final frame, as Sophomore Preston Ferro opened the scoring on assists from Sophomores Jack Foye and Kyle Delaney. Bosco continued pressing SJR throughout the 3rd, outshooting the Green Knights nine to five in the 3rd period and 26-18 on the game, with
