It's that time of season again. Yes, Viper hockey is back!
The Vipers started practice Monday, November 15, with tryouts for varsity players. Viper Hockey consists of three different schools; Sparta, West Salem, and Bangor.
Ryan Kaufman, a senior from Sparta said, "On the first day of practice we did so many drills and laps people started throwing up." The Vipers don't mess around, mainly because they were undefeated MVC champs last year and hope to go to state this year.
The Vipers practice at the Sparta ice rink by the golf course. The boys and girls have to be ready to practice from 3:45p.m. until 6p.m. They have a scrimmage at Reedsburg and host their first conference game on December 7 at home against Black River Falls at 7:30p.m.
The Vipers love support from their fans. Johnny Lodico, sophomore at Sparta High School said, "When the fans come out to cheer us on, we get pumped up! That really helps us get our blood pumping and our heads in the game."
