The Whitman-Hanson-Pembroke(WHP) February Senior Day girls' hockey game against Norwell at Rockland Ice Arena is up and running at pembrokecommunitymedia.  It was filmed by volunteer Deanna Hatch, whose daughter Mel, #1, plays keeper.

And what a game that was.

WHP made 3 of its 4 game goals in the action-packed 1st period, with #14 Whitman-Hanson Freshman Abby Majenski making one and assisting in the other 2.  Great work, Gabby.

Norwell's #14 Caroline Nichols also scored during that 1st period assisted by teammate Teri Dinger.

“I like to film the girls congregating and having fun before the game,” Hatch related. “Senior Day was special for me and my daughter Mel who is a senior. It was one of the last few home games that I taped. Mel plays goalie. It was an honor and privilege to be sharing in that special day for the girls.”  Hatch went on to say, “I have so many nice things to say, that I'm overwhelmed.”

With instant and slow motion replays and freeze frames of key plays, watching this video is even better than being at the event itself.

Whitman Hanson Pembroke Girls Hockey

Wm Flynn coaches varsity girls' Whitman/Hanson/Pembroke (WHP) hockey,  and uses game videos shot by Deanna Hatch, Sports Director for Pembroke Community Media Center, as a training tool. 

Saturday night's Jan 26th WHP vs. Falmouth Clippers game was especially momentous for the team, since Falmouth ranked first in the Southeastern MA Girls Hockey League South Division I.

“I was so proud of all the girls efforts,” Coach Flynn said, referring to WHP's performance that night.   “They played as a team, and it showed.” 

Flynn continued, “Had they played this way against Marshfield,  the outcome would have been different.”  He was talking about three days earlier when at 5 pm on January 23rd, WHP lost to Marshfield by only one point at the Bridgewater Ice Arena(BIA).

“Thanks to Deanna for game films,” Flynn said. “They let us better prepare in advance for upcoming games.”

Hatch's daughter, Mel,  keeper for the team, offered her thoughts on the Falmouth game which evenly finished at 2-2, had 6 penalties for each faction, and one 3rd period goal for each team.  “The girls looked really well and they pulled together when we needed it most. It felt good to give Falmouth their first tie.”

Deanna Hatch likewise was especially enamored by the team, and afterwards exclaimed “Oh my gosh.  It was an amazing game.  I've never been so proud of those girls.”  Hatch went on to call the Falmouth Ice Rink event “a true nail-biter.  I am so glad to have the game on film, because that's something you just can't get back once it's over.”

The Falmouth game also was a critical landmark for player Jane Morrisette who made both a 2nd period assist and a 3rd period goal, earning her 100th and 101st high school hockey career points.

“I feel excited,” Morrisette said. “I think as a junior it was a great accomplishment, and I hope to keep racking up the points.”

 Morrisette plans to play both field hockey and ice hockey again her senior 2013-14 year.

WHPs next game is at 1:50 pm tomorrow, Feb 9th against Norwell at the Bridgewater Ice Arena(BIA).
