My name is Connor Tedstrom. I played high school hockey in Colorado for 4 years, and during my senior year, I decided I wanted to pursue playing junior hockey and Division I college hockey. This is the story of going from Colorado High School Hockey to junior hockey from my perspective: my thoughts, experiences, and lessons learned along the way.

Well...we lost tonight 2 to 1 in the national semifinals. It was a good run and an unforgettable season for me. I never thought I'd end up playing in Boise, Idaho this year, but everything happens for a reason, and I can honestly say I'm very happy with how the second half of my season went with the Junior Steelheads. If I learned anything this year, I learned that sometimes things don't go your way. I think it was pretty obvious that we were the better team tonight, outshooting El Paso 45-21 through the game, but sometimes you run into a hot goalie. And those things happen. Nothing can take away from the season we had as a team or the season I had individually, though. I'll never forget my first year of junior hockey.

What an unbelievable experience Connor! We're sad we're going home early too, but congratulations on a great season. Your perserverance and focus are increbible - and all the hard work has begun to pay off. You are a completely different hockey player now than you were even 30 days ago.
