Unionville claimed the 2011 Flyers Cup Championship after posting a 15-1 regulatr season<\/p><\/div>\n

More often than not the reason that the pinnacle could be obtained is largely due to senior leadership or experience that has found away to overcome pitfalls and obstacles during a long season, culminating in hoisting the trophy thus raising the bar for future squads.<\/p>\n

Last season Unionville blistered ICSHL opponents on a regular basis posting a 101-10 scoring advantage while posting a 15-1 regular season record, then battled through a brutal bracket to claim the coveted Flyers Cup championship against the best that the tri state area has to offer, consider the bar raised.<\/p>\n

Fast forward to this week, the Indians have picked up right where they left off laying waste to any one who has stood in their way en route to a 5-1-0 start which puts them two points behind Haverford and Downingtown East who are both 6-0-0 in the league standings.<\/p>\n

Last seasons leading scorer junior Annabeth Donovan (23 goals, 11 assists) has again established herself as one of the league biggest scoring threats as she has 5 goals and 3 assists to her credit in the young season, including a goal and an assist in an 8-0 rout of Avon Grove this week as the Indians prepare to battle Radnor on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Even with all of its success, Unionville, who gets major contributions from seniors Jenna Lisicky and Kate Steller, is mostly comprised of underclassmen, which is a scary prospect for the rest of the ICSHL girl\u2019s varsity league.<\/p>\n

The junior tandem of Lyndsey Wenzel, who posted a goal and helper in the win against the Devils and Lilly Henjes (2 goals, 5 assists in 2011) have set the tone offensively all season and are a threat every time they touch the ice.<\/p>\n

The Indians have been more than proficient defensively allowing just eight goals thus far in six games thanks to stellar work at the blue line by a couple of young guns in sophomore Morgan Wilm, who has also recorded 3 goal and 3 assist thus far, and freshman Emily Anderson who helped fuel the 21-1 edge in shots on goal against the Devils.<\/p>\n

Unionville senior goaltender Jenna Lisicky (2-1-0, 1.83 GAA, .833 save pct.) recorded her first shut out of the season against Avon Grove, that coupled with the exploits of freshman net minder Lillian Jones (3-0-0), who has allowed a miniscule 0.46 goal against average while posting a ridiculous save percentage of .938, has made the Indians crease virtually impenetrable all season long as they have allowed more than one goal just once all season, a 5-4 loss to Haverford.<\/p>\n
