Lake Placid- Thursday the NSA JV boys hockey took a trip down to Albany to face off against Suffern and Saranac Central.

The first game against Suffern the boys "played half of the period" said coach Ben Teft but then added "stupid penalties killed the intensity." 

Suffern is the second strongest division one high school in the state of New York and the game played out to be a 6-2 game in favor of Suffern.

Team captain Alex Kwok scored both goals in the game but said he felt that the team played like "shit." 

Jake Ruby played in net and he "competed" the entire time said coach Teft.

The second game, against Saranac Central, was a different story, scoring seven goals the team led the way to a 7-2 win.

Kwok said "we used teamwork traits to help us play better then we did against Suffern." Overall he was happy with the teams play. 

Stephan Demetz was a big factor in net only allowing two goals. Coach Teft said "he made some big saves." 

All around it was a good weekend for the boys. With only three games left Teft really just wants the them to continue to show intensity. He realizes that since they are not playing for playoffs it can be hard but he still has confidence in his team.
