Colton Perry is a sophomore on the Milford Mariners hockey team. Advocate Social Media Editor Fiorella Gargiulo interviewed Perry about the current season.

Fiorella Gargiulo: What is your position on the ice and how do you help the team?

Colton Perry:  I play left wing and center and I help my team by scoring goals, drawing penalties, and hyping up my teammates.

FG: What is it like to be on the Mariners?

CP: It is a great experience to play with kids that are all different ages and experiences. We learn from each other and have a great time playing together.

FG: How is hockey different from other sports?

CP: It is different from other sports because we are on ice and balance on blades. Skating is hard enough to learn and then we have to worry about full contact as well as scoring in a small net that a goalie fully fills.

FG: What is it like playing with kids from Platt Tech and Foran?

CP: It is fun because I am playing with kids I went to middle school with and kids that I have seen all around Milford, rather than just Law.

FG: What do you hope the team works on for the rest of the season?

CP: I hope the team works on improving every day to win a state championship.
