Varsity Ice Hockey 6-1

What can I say, this was by far one of the most exciting ice hockey matches that I have ever been to. It probably helps that one of our very own, Paul St. Pierre Plamadon, was on the ice and doing a most fabulous job. Paul, we promised you a massive sign and here it is...

... we hope you saw us waving proudly at you and cheering you on.

Last Saturday, the MBA class was out in full force to watch our Oxford Blues played the annual the annual Varsity match against Cambridge. Our boys did a sterling job with an excellent defence and a fantastic goalie.

History
Oxford University's hockey tradition traces its roots to a historically unconfirmed 6-0 victory over Cambridge in St Moritz in 1885, but the first photograph and team lists date from February 1895. Formed by Canadians, the tradition has continued to this day (Paul is from Canada) however the heaving statium last Saturday is evidence that the rest of the world is catching up with this exciting sport.

Well done Paul for a great match!
