(H.C.R.105)
Offered by: Representatives Chapin of East Montpelier, Donahue of Northfield,
Goslant of Northfield, LaMont of Morristown, Mihaly of Calais, and Patt of Worcester Offered by: Senators Cummings, Perchlik, and Watson Whereas, if any boys’ high school ice hockey championship game is remembered for the suspense and surprise it generated at Gutterson Fieldhouse in Burlington, it will be the
2023 Division II final that matched the top-seeded Mt. Mansfield Cougars against the second-ranked U-32 Raiders, and Whereas, the Cougars scored first, and, from the middle of the second period until halfway into the last regulation period, Mt. Mansfield maintained a 3–1 advantage until,
only seconds before the third period ended, U-32 scored two goals, sending the game into two tense overtimes—which U-32 ended with a final goal eight minutes and nineteen seconds into the second overtime—and winning the contest 4–3, and Whereas, the 20–2–2 Raiders who prevailed at the longest-ever Division II boys’ ice hockey championship game were Henry Lumbra, River Sciarrotta, Callum Davis, Eric Burgess, Shane Starr, Andrew Ognibene, Lance Starr, Colton Warren, Tae Rossmassler,
Grady Smith, John Widener, Jacob Amones, Brenden Tedeschi, Max Scribner, Andrew Baker, Nolan Lyford, Jackson Jagemann, Camden Tatro, Owen Jones, Maddox Heise,
Hazen Stoufer, Joseph Tucker, Duncan Mathies, and Bodi Hollister, and Whereas, Head Coach Shane Locke and assistant coaches Corey Robbins, Corey Gilander, Mark Sciarrotta, and Roy Schiff were outstanding advisors, now therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
That the General Assembly congratulates the 2023 U-32 Raiders Division II
championship boys’ ice hockey team, and be it further Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to U-
32.
