\"Goal<\/a>On Saturday, October 27th, 2012, Uconn was playing No. 8 Union on their home opener.\u00a0 My dad, my friend Alex and I went to this game.\u00a0 There was a lot of people at the game, and the Husky dog was even there.\u00a0 The action started right away, as UConn almost scored early on, when the puck just narrowly missed the right side of the net.\u00a0 Union was startled I think because they didn’t expect this kind of opposition, and the first period ended with the game tied at 0, and UConn leading in shots!\u00a0 This game was also really fun, because the crowd was really active and had a lot of team spirit, the most I’ve ever seen!\u00a0 In the second period, Union started shooting more but so did UConn.\u00a0 However, things started to go badly for UConn.\u00a0 Jacob Poe hit someone from behind, earning him a penalty.\u00a0 Only seconds into the power-play, Evan Carrie got a penalty, to give Union a 5-on-3.\u00a0 Only seconds later, Union shot the puck past Bartus to gain the 1-0 lead.\u00a0 Ten minutes later, when the period was almost over, Jordan Sims shot the puck at the top right corner, only for it to be saved by the Union goalie, but it bounced back and hit Sean Ambrosie and went into the net!\u00a0 UConn had tied the game at 1-1!\u00a0 A group of teenagers and the Huskies were banging on the wall so hard, that the whole was shaking!\u00a0 However, the refs almost didn’t count the goal because it bounced off Amborsie’s shoulder.\u00a0 If they didn’t count it, I think there would have been a riot on our side. \u00a0 At the end of the period, Uconn was holding the eigth best tam in the nation at 1-1!\u00a0 I was so excited!<\/p>\n

My friend alex and I were so happy, we singing the songs that were on the radio though our posters!\u00a0 We could hardly contain ourselves!\u00a0 When UConn came out in the final period they got a standing ovation from the crowd.\u00a0 Union out-shot Uconn in the final period 22-5.\u00a0 However, Uconn scored only eight minutes into the final period, to gain a 2-1 lead against Union!\u00a0 Brant Harris was the scorer, and the crowd was going beserk!\u00a0 Unfortunatly, with only six minutes remaining in the game, Union scored.\u00a0 UConn and Union battled but no one scored, so the game went to overtime.\u00a0 Union had the best opportunities but the UConn defense was incredible, and held off Union.\u00a0 In the final 15 second however, UConn also had some golden opportunities, but also failed to score.\u00a0 But, UConn still tied the eigth best team in the nation!\u00a0 Union outshot UConn by a long-shot, but UConn’s defense was great and their offense made every shot count!\u00a0 We all agreed that it was one of the greatest games we ever saw, and we hope Uconn plays that way all season, because they will dominate if they do!\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
