Stoneman Douglas Hockey Team Begins Plymouth Tourney

5:21 PM | Thursday, March 22, 2018

The USA Hockey National High School Tournament started Thursday at the Plymouth Ice Center, featuring 36 teams from across the nation, including the Stoneman Douglas High School team whose players survived the Feb. 14 school shooting that killed 13 students and four staff members.

“Hopefully for the time they are here, they’ll see our warm welcome, have a great time and maybe take their mind off it for a while,” said April Hanson with the Sunshine Factory Bar and Grill in Plymouth.

Hanson’s restaurant is providing free meals to the Stoneman Douglas team after Friday’s game.

“It’s about paying it forward and doing the right thing at the right time for the right reason,” said Hanson.

Stoneman Douglas played Regis Jesuit High School of Aurora, Colo., Thursday afternoon. The tournament features 68 games over a five-day span.

“To have Stoneman make the tournament and be here for it, that makes it really, really special,” said Pat Milan with Edina hockey.

Terry Larson, who runs 24/7 Active Sportz Gear out of Wayzata, is selling special Stoneman Douglas souvenirs at the tournament, with all proceeds going to the Stoneman Douglas Victims’ Fund.

“We represent Parkland right here with a little heart down there in the town of Parkland, Fla., and we were hoping that the Minnesota hockey community would come together and show our love and support,” said Larson.

“None of us can imagine what these kids have gone through and their families for that matter,” said Hanson with the Sunshine Factory. “We wanted to reach out and extend some Minnesota nice their way, open our doors and say let’s take care of you.”
