Lake Worth native Brittany Bugalski joined in on the opportunity to teach local youngsters about hockey and share her experiences as a goaltender growing up in South Florida.
Bugalski, 18, recently won a Gold Medal with Team USA at the U-18 Women’s World Championship and earned a shutout over Team Czech Republic in her first game of the tournament.
“It was unbelievable,” Bugalski said about winning Gold with Team USA. “It’s everything you grow up as a kid dreaming of and to seeing it come to life, winning a goal medal…it was an overtime game, 20 seconds [into overtime] our captain scores from the blue line, it was just unbelievable.
