Mayor Patton read the Proclamation-ce Hockey Day as follows:
Whereas, to win their first four games in the Chicago pre-season tournament before a championship game comeback fell a little short against a perennial favorite Providence Catholic. A second-place finish in the Mid-States preseason tournament sent warnings signals through the league that the team from Edwardsville would be contenders. A very impressive 10-5-1 regular season record, including wins against every team in the Municipal Division with sweeps of Chaminade, Oakville, and Vianney; and
Whereas, with two highlight reel games in the net, the Tigers were able to deliver the first loss to SLUH which until that game had hopes of a perfect season, and a blistering 6-1 victory over the nine-time league champion CBC Cadets. No one who was there could forget one of the best performances of the year by every single player on the team in the Chicago Thanksgiving Tournament, shocking the select Chicago Bruins with a 4-1 victory in the championship game; and
Whereas, finally, to cap off a season to remember for the 13 seniors, it was incredible watching the members of this community, the players, coaches, and parents come together and raise the money needed to go to the High School National Championships in Cleveland. The team accepted their third-place medal with pride. They shook every hand of their opponents and congratulated them on one of the hardest fought hockey games one will ever see,
Therefore, for their achievements during the 2016-2017 season, the Edwardsville High School-Mid-States Hockey Team, and their third place finish in the 2017 USA Hockey National Championships, l, Hal Patton, Mayor of the City of Edwardsville, do hereby declare April 18", 2017 as "EHS Hockey Day" in the City of Edwardsville, IL.
