AAA RESULTS


Well the AAA tryouts for VH and CW are over and once again Devin made it to the final cut. At VH they started out with 11 goalies and he was one of the last three called back. And once again he was cut on the last day. The CW AAA coach loved him and told him that he would be the third goalie for spring. The coach had already committed to two goalies for fall; however, the number 1 goalie was going to have heel surgery and would be unable to play most of the spring. This worked out perfect for Devin because he was going to return to the Phantoms in the fall anyway. Well after the CW goalies parents watched Devin at tryouts, they decided they would wait on the surgery for their son,(most likely worried they would lose their spot), so Devin was let go in the end. The coach told him he like him to attend some practises and a game or two if one of his goalies is not available though, same as last year, and for me this is getting very frustrating. In the meantime two other AA coaches have called to see if Devin was available to tryout for their teams. Since next year is a Nationals year, several coaches are putting together a team they hope can make it to Nationals and are looking for good goalies, but of course this is also the Phantoms plan. Phantoms have spring tryouts next week and hope to pick up some kids that can close the holes we had on the team this year.
