A RAMS fan comments on the Mennen Cup games played on 2/20/2020:


The Mennen ice was extra cold tonight, but not for the Randolph RAMS nor the Morristown Beard high school ice hockey teams:

First the RAMS demolished Madison 8-2.

The Beatle’s “With a little help from my friends” echoed through the arena, all game.

  • Assists from Barbera, Cross, Sofia, and Harper
  • Two assists from Z.Gallo, McNamara, and Xhumba
  • Four from captain Zangara, resulted in goals for Nick Gallo, Justin Harper, Matt Rogers, and Ben Yurchuk
  • Two goals each from Nick Gallo and Kyle Barbera
  • The team shot 47 pucks on goal.
  • Gavin Einfeldt faced 18 shots

The Gallo brothers scored the first three goals and I thought of calling it a Gallo hat trick and someone suggested a Gallo Goal Sandwich. Both seem to fit.

The second game saw Beard turn the heat on Chatham for a 7-0 shutout.

You have got to know that the ice will be on fire on Saturday when the Cup will be awarded to either MB or the RAMS.

Go RAMS! STAY FOCUSED!

Note: NJ.com just published an article highlighting the 40 skaters to watch in the state playoffs this year. This is what they said about the RAMS captain JT Zangara:

JT Zangara, Randolph, F “Randolph’s stellar senior has already matched his career high with 19 goals and is the team’s leading scorer.If the Rams are to make amends for a loss in the Public B final last year, Zangara is a player that can definitely help make it happen with his vision and playmaking ability on the ice.”
