BRADLEY JR. AND CHRISTIAN
VAZQUEZ.
FOR HIGH 5, WE TRAVEL ALONG
ROUTE 16 TO WELLESLEY HIGH
SCHOOL WHERE THE HALLWAYS ARE
STILL BUZZING OVER THE ST.
PATRICK’S DAY CELEBRATION.
THEY HAVE LITTLE TO DO WITH THE
LUCK OF THE IRISH BUT THE SKILL
AND MIGHT OF THE GIRLS HOCKEY
TEAM.
♪
>> IT IS "THE ULTIMATE" GOAL
AND THE ULTIMATE FEELING TO WIN
A STATE TITLE AND SHARE IT WITH
YOUR TEAMMATE, FAMILY AND
FRIENDS.
THE ONLY WAY TO TOP IT IS TO WIN
TWO YEARS IN A ROW, AND THAT IS
WHAT THE WELLESLEY GIRLS JUST
PULLED OFF.
HAS THAT SMILE BUT ON YOUR FACE
SINCE ST. PATRICK’S DAY?
>> YES, ABSOLUTELY.
HOCKEY SEASON BRINGS OUT NOTHING
BUT SMILES.-
>> IT WAS UNREAL GOING BACK TO
BACK.
I WASN’T REALLY EXPECTING IT.
COMING INTO THE SEASON BUT WE
PULLED IT OFF
MIKE: WELLESLEY HAS WITH THE RED
SOX ARE CHASING --  BACK-TO-BACK
CHAMPIONSHIPS.
SO, ANY ADVICE FOR THE SOX?
>> MY ADVICE WOULD BE TO
DEDICATE YOURSELF TO EACH OTHER.
OUR GIRLS WERE REALLY ABLE TO DO
THAT.
REALLY COMMITTED TO THEIR TOWN
AND THEIR FRIENDS ON THE TEAM.
THAT IS WHAT MADE US SUCCESSFUL
FOR BACK-TO-BACK YEARS.
THE GIRLS CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER.
MIKE: THERE WERE SECONDS
REMAINING WHEN THE RAIDERS ENDED
IT.
>> AND IT GOES IN!
THAT’S IT!
EMILY, GETS A SCREEN OUT FRONT.
MIKE: THE GAME-WINNER WAS A
SISTER ACT.
BIG SISTER EMILY.
SOMETHING MAY HAVE PLAYED OUT
HUNDREDS OF TIMES IN THE FAMILY
DRIVEWAY.
>> I SAW HER SKATING UP THE ICE
WITH THE PUCK.
I HIT IT OFF THE BOARDS TO HER.
>> I GRABBED THE PUCK AND TOOK
IT OVER THE BLUE LINE AND ACROSS
THE DEFENSE AND BRIDGET WAS IN
FRONT OF THE NET SCREAMING.
I SHOUTED OVER THE RIGHT PAD.
>> WHAT WAS THE FEELING WHEN IT
TRICKLED IN?
>> IT WAS SO AMAZING.
WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE.
MIKE: COULD YOU SEE FROM WAY
BACK?
>> NO.
BUT I COULD TELL.
MIKE: A TEAM GETS THE
GAME-WINNER FROM TWO FAMILY
MEMBERS.
>> AWESOME.
WE ALL JUMPED STRAIGHT ON THE
ICE.
SO, EXCITED FOR EMILY AND ALL OF
US.
MIKE: SMILED AND MEMORIES THAT
WILL LAST A LIFETIME.
WE SALUTE THE BACK-TO-BACK STATE
CHAMPIONS IN THIS WEEK’S --
>> HIGH 5!
[CHEERING]
MIKE: THE MINUTE I WALKED INTO
THE HIGH SCHOOL I COULD FEEL THE
ENTHUSIASM.
MARIA: WE CAN FEEL THAT.
I LOVE THE SISTER STORY.
