USA Warriors Face Hockey Media in First Annual Charity Game

A new tradition came to the area on Sunday at Kettler Capitals Iceplex. It’s a charity hockey game between the USA Warriors and hockey media members, with the proceeds going to the USA Warriors.

With plenty of fans in the stands, Caps PA maestro Wes Johnson announced the lineup and Bob McDonald sang the national anthem. After a ceremonial puck drop, the fun began.

Both goalies played strong in the scoreless first period, as everybody was getting a feel for the game. The Warriors scored almost immediately after the second period puck drop, and the media team responded almost immediately after.
