Winter Blizzard closes the college but hockey marches on...........

The past 24 hours have been a little crazy due to the harsh weather Fredonia has seen.  The cold bitter temperatures and white out blizzard conditions have caused a few problems with our hockey club and some of our teammates. Unfortunately our game today against Elmira was cancelled because of the brutal weather conditions. Having a game cancelled is never fun because as players, games are what we look forward to most. It is always fun to play against different people rather than our teammates that we compete against everyday in practice.   So hopefully the weather will cooperate and we can get our games in against Neumann this weekend.
This weather has also caused problems for myself, and teammate/roommate Andy Christ.  With the cold temperatures in the negatives, our cars have taken a big hit.  My car windows froze and broke causing them to no longer move back up, so I had to take it into the shop to have fixed.  I am not really sure when I will have it back or how much it is going to cost me.  The only other car that we had for transportation was Christ's, which we just found out this morning will no longer turn over because of the cold, bone-chilling temperatures.  So my housemates and I have been in quite the bind today with no form of transportation to and from campus. I know Andy has tried to start his car all day, and he still has not had any luck. 

 Hopefully tomorrow the temperatures will warm up a little and his car will start and run again. Until then, all we can do is try to stay warm and pray that one of our cars will be operating the way they should be so we don't have to worry about rides to and from hockey practice every morning.
