Opening Shots

August 19, 2024 at 11:33 am.

The ‘CrossBar’ was jumping on opening night, with new friends (and foes) hammering shots, buzzing with new linemates, and generally getting the party started on the Fall 2024 season. Some teams partied harder than others, and some may just want to black out the whole night, but the boozing has just begun, and the strongest livers will deliver the ultimate prize…

A toast…to a new SDFHL season! The ‘Team Theme’ open session was a chance for some of the more dedicated partiers to come out and sneak in a few shots before the real revelry begins with Week One action this Sunday.

‘The Silencer’ is not just a silly/loose play on words nickname for the most dominant goalie the league has ever seen, but a fact…a warning…an accurate description of Silas Perks. Captain Copp’s Olive breezed through the regular season on his broad, unbending back, and after their first and only loss to Brown in Week Two of playoff play, Perks has pushed his team back to the Final with three straight wins, including a double-header-do-or-die deed this past Sunday.
