"I thought Ben played a terrific game. He and Tony have been going Friday and Saturday night for a while, so it's good to see Ben step up when we need him to play more. They're a good team; Sacred Heart's as good as anyone we've played this year."
-Coach Paul Pearl, quoted in the Jan. 8 Sunday Telegram, after his team's 3-2 win over the SH Pioneers at the Hart Center Saturday evening.
That was Pearl's only quote in the game story. Tony Quesada was scratched with an illness, but is expected back for the next game (Army, on Friday).
I met senior goalie Ben Conway over a year ago, and had a chance to hang out with him for a while. I was very impressed with him. He was personable, thoughtful, goal-oriented (no pun intended - obviously!), and overall, the kind of student-athlete of whom we can be proud. He has a direction in his life and a good head on his shoulders. I've rooted for him ever since I met him, and I'm happy to see him having a great senior season.
