Be Part of the Winning Experience at MYHA

As the season nears an end and we look back on the MYHA 24-25 season, we celebrate the incredible success our teams had on the ice. Success comes in many forms—growth in skill, teamwork, friendships, and the dedication shown by every player, coach, and family. We proudly recognize the teams that brought home tournament and league championships and those who fought hard as finalists in their tournaments and league playoffs.

But success isn’t just about trophies—it's also about the teams who showed determination, improvement, and a love for the game. Many teams made great strides in skill development, built strong team chemistry, and played with heart every time they hit the ice. Whether it was a big win, a hard-fought battle, or simply growing as a team, every MYHA player contributed to a successful season.

Enjoy some highlights from this season and here’s to another year of memories, progress, and love for the game!

Youth 14U AA, 16U AA Blue, 18U AA Blue and Girls 16U AA Blue all qualify for USA Hockey Nationals April 2-6, 2025 and a shot being a National Champion.

MYHA would like to congratulate the 12U B Silver Team and the 14U UA Gold/13U AA Team on their tournament victories this past weekend.

13UAA/14U UA Gold

Playing in the Can/AM Annapolis Youth Challenge Cup over the MLK Day Weekend, 13UAA/14UA Gold skated to a 4-0 record to capture the gold medal. After outscoring opponents 16-2 during the three game preliminary round, head coach Dan Lyons’ Ice Devils team beat CBHL division rivals Bowie Bruins 4-3 in the finals. In the championship game, with assists by linemates Jake Lyons and Matthew Venezie, right wing Andrew Fauver unleashed a no-angle top shelf snipe from the far corner in the third period to net the Game Winning Goal. After a quick rebuttal by the Bruins to pull within one goal, a strong team defense, led by goalie tandem Anthony Palermo and Gabe Hernandez all season, shut the door on any comeback hopes and sealed the championship victory.

12U B Silver

The 12U B Silver team was the grand champion in the Philly Liberty Cup this past weekend (1/18-1/20). Their teamwork and determination led them to a championship victory and they are proud to represent MYHA on the road with back to back tournament first place wins. 

Over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, 14 MYHA teams participated in the 2024 Eastern Regional Silver Stick Tournament across multiple different age groups and levels.  Of those teams, 11 teams  advanced to Semi-Finals with 7 teams making it to the Championship game (including 2 all MYHA Championship games).

In the end, 3 teams took home gold medals/championship banners and earned spots at the International Finals in Canada and Michigan. 

Congratulations to all our teams who participated. The hard work, effort, dedication, and leadership put forth by each player and coach was evident in every game played this weekend. We are excited to see how far our champions will go in their respective finals in January and February. 

Exciting time for former MYHA player Patrick Giles, who played in his first NHL game on Saturday October 12. Patrick began his hockey career with MYHA, went on to play with Landon and Team Maryland locally, then the USA Hockey National Team Development Program (NTDP) , Boston College and the Charlotte Checkers in the AHL. Congratulations Patrick!

Congratulations Patrick!
