Welcome to Hockey Top Corner


All right Ice Vols fans. I guess I will kick things off for the inaugural Hockey Top Corner, by first thanking our alumni for an awesome night last Friday. Those guys were so great to us and we had so much fun talking to them after the game. We were able to raise so much needed money and without their help it wouldn't be the same. On that note, the fact that we had four decades worth of Alumni at the event makes me extremely proud to be part of such a nostalgic organization. This club experienced some major setbacks recent years and the fact that we had 30 Alumni graciously come from all over the country to come support us tells me that the club is heading in the right direction, thanks to so much hard work from all of the players and coaching staff alike.

Next I guess I should talk about our upcoming season!!! Training camp has begun and we are looking strong. The excitement on the ice and the hard work around the team is probably the best I've seen in my 3 years here. There's so much to learn from ending a season in disappointment two years in a row. The desire for everyone to work hard I think shows this.

We are really looking forward to our first game on October 3rd in Vanderbilt. But most especially we are extremely looking forward to our Fall Break trip to Jacksonville and Orlando where we will play four important games to start out our season. There is nothing better to do during fall break than spend five days with your teammates on a long bus trip playing the sport you love.

I have so much more I could share but I think this is a good start for this segment. We really hope you guys enjoy Hockey Top Corner, because without our AMAZING FANS wearing and bleeding Orange just wouldn't be the same!

Kelsey out!
