Marple Newton Should Play More Games

Marple Newtown High School is playing in the EHSHL A league  and is having a banner year with a current record of 8-1-2. Goalie Evin Taxin has a 90.42 save percentage and the team holds four of the top eight scoring leaders in the league. It would be interesting if Marple Newtown could parlay this success into playing more teams from a higher level. For example if they can beat Cardinal O'Hara II 5-1, why not take a shot at the Cardinal O'Hara AAA team? Traditionally this has been done either as a scrimmage, as La Salle College High School's first games against the Hill School were, or as offering the ice time as an early start-up game to the higher level team, as St. Joseph's Preparatory School did with Moorestown and Archbishop Wood this year. It would be interesting to see what they could do.
