  • Elmira Soaring Eagles 2010/2011

    Captains practices are starting this Saturday! Everybody is present and accounted for...+ 2!

    It should be an interesting year for EC. Nine (9) newbies in camp to replace the eight (8) graduated seniors. Seven (7) forwards & two (2) defense as Fargo et al. try and replace their point production from last year.

    EC's first weekend goes @ Norwich U on October 29/30th which sees Boldings Cadets hosting... McDonalds's Tigers, Paulsen's Pilgrims & Fargo's Soaring Eagles in the East-West Classic.

    Got the rooms booked at "The Inn at Johnnycake Flats" and looking forward to a great weekend of hockey!

    Be sure to keep us updated on the progress and outlook of the new freshmen....now that you have graduated to sophomore status your opinion has more merit

      Will do.

      In my Rookie year...I didn't realize that @ EC all incoming freshman are on the JV team until tryouts are finished and the roster is announced...not until sometime in October I believe. I kinda like that tradition.

      Alas... I'm lookin at it as though with only sophmore status yet, I still haven't made the cut...

        Indeed that is the case, however it seems as though there is proof (of course via facebook) that a freshmen has already made her profile picture that of her ecwh jersey and number

        If what you say is the case, she shouldn't be able to have that yet, or have chosen her number....i'm hoping that it is just pure excitement and photoshopping of a previous player who owned the number which she strives to put on...have to keep everyone humble and on the same level, at least before tryouts. Very excited for the season though

          The very reason why I don't subscribe to faceplant...

          I like the season opening East-West tourney format and the teams that are attending...should be a ring-a-ding-dong-dandy...

          Look for RIT to come out of the gate early...

            Sooooooo excited for EC's season to begin. I will be "cutting" rookie teeth this season....assuming my D makes the team after tryouts I too like the tradition about announcing the team after that event!

            My D is at school, survived Freshmen orientation, her 1st 2 days of classes, the wearing of the beanies...although, I am told, they got to take them off early after defeating the OL's and pulling them into the pond/puddle. She is very excited, loves all the teammates she has met and says they are rarin' to go!

            My husband and I will make the trip to Norwich from CO...hopeful for a great start to an exciting year!

                  I look forward to meeting you both.

                  I just took a job as the Norwich University Assistant Sports Information Director and I'm sure I'll be a busy beaver that weekend with the women's team opening up with this inaugural tourney.

                          Seems Fargo and Vis have the team on a stringent diet of excersize these days with workouts scheduled for Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights and Captains practices going Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday nights. Definately not for the faint of heart.

                          Then as tradition would have it ... each morning they set out at 6:00am for the mandatory "Prison Run" where my kid tells me she always runs a little faster on the way home than on the way there....

                            You should always run back faster. !

                              That's interesting considering that in Division III, the coaches are not allowed to make anything mandatory before or after the season....which, according to NCAA Rules, is October 15th. I'm just sayin' because I know there were 'allegations' against out team that the coach was running their captains ice last year.
