Who Are We?

There have been previous Ashar hockey teams that had some great individual hockey talents on them. Some of those players going on to become some of the best Yeshiva high school hockey athletes of the tri state area. Many of them had greater hockey skills than any member of our current Ashar Hockey team. Yet with all that talent, previous Ashar teams never seem to come away with the winning season we enjoy today.

This season is different though from past Ashar Hockey seasons. This season Ashar Hockey has no single superstar. There is not that one player opposing teams know they must cover. This year the biggest threat to the opposition is not from any single individual or standout. The strength of todays Ashar Hockey program is that everything we do, we do as a team. Unity and balance our biggest strength. We practices as a team, scrimmage as a team, travel as a team, eat as a team, play as a team.

On February 12, 2006 Ashar was a team with a different goal. As a team though once again we set out to accomplish the goal we set out to achieve. On this day people whom we never played hockey against got a chance to see who we are.

We set a team goal of raising $10,000.00 this season for a charity. Not even the worst snow storm of the decade was going to stop us. Once again as a team we overcame a challenge and come away proud of our achievement.

As a team we wish to thank all those who support our efforts both on and off the court.

At the start of the season there were many who did not even know our school existed. They know us now.

Who are we? ............ The Ashar Hockey Team.
