Award Winning Hockey Player

Matthew just finished up season three of the sport he loves most - Inline Hockey. He had an amazing season. He was on the Sharks again and is a valued member of his team. His skating improved tremendously which in turn increased his speed and confidence level. He continues to prefer playing defense which is no surprise since he ROCKS at it! Mid season, he asked to play a little offense as well and successfully scored his first season goal a couple weeks ago. As the fall season came to an end last night, team members were each awarded a medal for their hard work. Then Matthew was giving a special league Sportsmanship Award. This award was especially important since all the coaches in the league agreed that Matthew was the one who deserved to win it. He was surprised to say the least. He got a great big trophy that he proudly has displayed in his room - that is when it is not in his hands. He takes a break next week, but it's back to work the week after. The winter season will give Matthew a "little" competition though... Drew has decided to give it a try. Watch out hockey world - the Morganstein kids are teaming up!!!
