Favorite Collegiate Roller Hockey Moment
At the WCRHL Conference Championships in Corona in 2020, we beat UCLA in a shootout, but during the last play of the shootout, our goalie was hurt, so in the following game I volunteered to play goalie. We lost the next game but it ended up being an interesting and exciting experience.
