The Colorado Jr. Eagles Girls U19AA team finished the season with a flurry catapulting them into their second straight appearance in the MSGHL State Tournament. 2009 was the Eagles girls inaugural season and they didn't disappoint going on to win the MSGHL State Championship in the "A" division. This years Eagles squad made the jump to "AA" which made the goal of making the state tournament that much more difficult.
With only 6 games left in the season the Eagles girls made their run for the playoffs by going 3-1-2 grabbing 8 points and securing their spot in this years state tournament. In those 6 games the Eagles goalies (Shannon Escalante and Sydney Firmin) gave up a grand total of only 4 goals!
With such a solid defensive core and solid goaltending the Eagles Girls have high hopes for this years MSGHL State tournament which starts February 26th at the Edge Ice Arena in Littleton Colorado. The Eagles Girls finished the regular season with a 6-4-2 record against non-tier U19AA teams.
