Pats and Congrats: King's EdgeHill Goalies - Peggy and Kate

This entry is very dated, but I'm trying to catch up with all my past season's Pats'n'Congrats for all the great teams and goalies with whom I had the priviledge to work.  The spring has just turned out busier than I expected.

I need to make a shout-out to two great goalies that helped deliver the first ever High School Provincial Female Hockey Championship for King's EdgeHill.  I was called in to head up to Windsor on a regular basis to work and assist with the school's goalies (both female and male programs).  Here I had an opportunity to meet and work with two very good and dedicated goalies: Peggy Yoston and  Katrina "Kate" Nikonova.

The young ladies were totally new to me, as Peggy is from P.E.I. and Kate is from Russia.   They both were already well established and skilled goalies that had well deserved reputations as members of King's EdgeHill's elite hockey program.  But even so, I rarely have found two goalies so willing to work hard and be receptive to new ideas, drills, and challenges.  And the proof is in the pudding, they lead their team to both league and tournament championships, capped off with a provincial title, the first ever for the King's EdgeHill female hockey program.

Way to go girls!  I hope to have the chance to keep working with you in the seasons to come.
