The Stoa Family

Many of the family were in attedance for Maria's game to see her score a goal against Wayazata and then went down to see Ryan playing with the Gophers and score a beautiful goal against Denver and then get interviewed.<br>Congrat's to the Stoa Family!! Enjoy!! <p></p><i></i>

Probably the most humble people you'd ever meet too. Great people, and talented hockey players to say the least! <p></p><i></i>

They both wear # 29--I think that is the powerball number for tonight--would that not be nice if they bought a ticket! <p></p><i></i>

I can remember when Maria made the transition from U12A to HS in 8th grade she didn't miss a beat. It was amazing. I'd never seen that before. <p></p><i></i>

Yesterday it appeared that Maria got the assist and not the goal but they reported that she got it--as it turns out it was her long time linemate Melissa Feste who got the goal and Maria who assisted-- <p></p><i></i>

Did anyone see the "hooking" where she ended up with her jersey over her head tonight? That was priceless. Especially when she scored her disallowed goal a few minutes later and then put her jersey back over her head! That's classic Maria Stoa - What a great player, and she has a great sense of humor too obviously! <p></p><i></i>

Yes, that was hilarious!<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>She obviously has a passion for the game and has FUN playing the game. <p></p><i></i>

I didn't get to see a state game in person this year, and just caught parts on TV/radio due to work, but was happy to see this unfold...<br><br>What a great kid, and congrats to her for winning it all with EP, and to her brother Ryan too for cliniching the WCHA reg. season title last night w/the gophs. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... ckeyfan</A> at: 2/26/06 1:03 pm<br></i>
