Greenwich Country Day School's (GCDS) Boys Hockey team secured their first-ever Fairfield Athletic Association (FAA) double championship — capturing both the FAA League Championship and the FAA Tournament Championship in the same season — with a dramatic 4-3 overtime victory against Kingswood Oxford School at Wings Arena in Stamford. It marks the first time in program history the Tigers have claimed both titles.
In the Tournament Championship game, senior goaltender Max Motovylyak was outstanding, stopping 41 of 44 shots. Cullen Carré ’29 delivered the overtime golden goal for the win. Logan Mackey ’27 scored twice, Henry Schwefel ’29 added a goal and an assist, and Jonah Gutman ’28 contributed two assists.
GCDS held Kingswood-Oxford scoreless during all five penalties assessed to the Tigers— an extraordinary feat against a team with the best power play conversion rate in the league.
“This is a team of winners. Plain and simple,” says Guy Savage, Head Varsity Hockey Coach. “Whenever they needed to close out a game or their backs were against the wall, this group of young men always found a way to get it done.”
Tim Helstein, Director of Athletics adds, “Not only did they win the FAA Regular Season Championship, but to then capture the FAA Tournament Title, both for the first time in the program’s history, is what truly sets this season apart.”
