The Royals Are Coming to Town (And We’ve Misplaced Our Curtsies) 🏰🏒

Listen, I checked the travel itinerary, and apparently, we have "Royals" arriving at the BAM tomorrow. The Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy is bringing their majestic lion logo and a team name that sounds like they should be greeted with a trumpet fanfare and a plate of cucumber sandwiches.

Look, it’s all very The Crown, isn't it? I half-expect a tabloid photographer to be hiding in the penalty box trying to get a quote from Prince Harry about the odiferous nature of the locker rooms. But here’s the thing, while they’re worried about their "divine right" to the puck, we’re celebrating a different kind of lineage.

It’s Senior Night. 🎓

We’re honoring five guys who have put in more work than the entire House of Windsor combined. This class is the real deal:

Cole "Coley the Goalie" Clark (#30): Our very own Tower of London. He’s been in the crease since 2011 and was named Strongsville’s MVP last season. If you want a puck to get past him, you’re going to need an Act of Parliament. 

Jack "KitKat" Katrinak (#28): A Captain who’s been a Mustang since he was three years old. He’s our blue-line veteran heading to Ohio University next year. He’s the guy who keeps the "realm" secure while the rest of us are busy worrying about the snacks. 

Nolan Miller (#11): If CVCA is the monarchy, Nolan is the mischievous Jester who’s here to absolutely wreck the palace. He’s a "grinder" who lives for the chaos; basically a one-man agent of anarchy who dreams of being a pilot one day. Probably so he can fly away after he's finished checking everyone into the boards. 

Dustin Primozic (#24): A three-year veteran who "works in silence." Dustin is heading into the Army National Guard after graduation , so he’s already practiced at defending the territory from invading "lions." 

Andrew Pacl (#17): A forward who’s become a total staple of this roster. He’s heading to paramedic school to become a firefighter, which is good, because he’s spent his career putting out fires on the ice for us. 

So, come out to the BAM. No fascinators or morning suits required, just wear green. Let’s show these Royals that in Strongsville, we don’t bow; we just play hockey. 🐴💚🦁
