Icedog Debut for Jared!

Jared getting ready to head to his first Icedog Jr. A game!
warming up.... (I felt sick, I was so nervous for him-yet near tears of being proud all at the same time!).

Right before the anthem....Jared is in the center

Facing off...Jared played wing most of the game, but towards the end, he got to be center, and even get some power play time. The team won 7-2. Jared had 6 shots on net according the stat page on the www.nahl.com During the 3rd period Jared forechecked the defenseman and knocked the puck off of his stick and put the puck into the net. We went crazy....I did feel a small tear in the corner of my eye. Both my parents were there, along with both my brothers, their wives and almost all their kids. My nephew Matt is in Hawaii at the moment so he was not there. It was very exciting. At an earlier point in the game, a player from Wichita gave Jared a check from behind knocking him down. Jared's linemate come flying in and next thing you, they have gloves dropped and are fighting. Jared's Grandpa went up to this player after the game and thanked him for taking care of his grandson. haha The player says he always watching out for his line!

This is #23 (blue pants) who got the guy for the cheap shot he took on Jared. Many many fights during the game. I definitely dont like that part of the game. Not this fight but another left blood on the ice. Will Aide is his teammates name.

Jared played really well, even without the goal....hopefully he will get more games with the Icedogs now!
