Roller Hockey
Most students at West Hills did not know that there was a roller hockey team.Some sports obviously received more attention than others, but roller hockey seemed to be even farther below the radar, and even the players could admit that. Although, while interviewing a student Ryan Vanoni, he mentioned that hockey isn’t very popular anyways on the West Coast than on the East Coast.
When did you start playing hockey?
“I started playing hockey a while ago. I’ve been playing for most of my life though.”
What inspired you to start playing hockey?
“ I just thought it was a cool sport as I was younger and just pursued it throughout the years.”
Why do you think hockey isn’t recognized a lot?
“ I don’t think hockey gets recognized a lot because it’s not as big of a sport as football or baseball.”
What makes hockey different from other sports?
“ I just love hockey and it’s unique in it’s own way.
Although the sport was not as well known as others, the team did not let that get in their way when they hit the derby. The team was not constantly recognized for their victories, but they kept their heads up. Even through the losses and kicks to the penalty box, the hockey team at West Hills stuck together and was victorious almost every game. The team realized that with or without publicity, going out and playing hockey was all that mattered.
