The Springfield Rifles East West Invitational Hockey Tournament over the weekend featured some of the best teams and players in New England participating at the U18, U16, U15 and U14 levels. Games were played at UMass Amherst and at the Olympia Ice Center in West Springfield, MA.

It was a very well organized Tournament, congratulations to Tournament Directors Kevin Kervick and Brian Foley...and to all those who worked to make it successful. It takes a lot of organization and effort to pull off such a Tournament. Not only great and exciting hockey was played but full information on teams, schedules, and players was available to fans.


Congratulations to the Division Champions: (Note the excitement and competitiveness of the Tournament was exemplified by the two shootouts in the U18 Divisions.)

U18 West: Yale Bulldogs Showcase with a 3-2 win over Boston Jr. Bruins in a shootout
