Many decades of on-ice experience were displayed last week at the 2025 Michigan Senior Olympics. Many, many decades!

Two teams came out of Crystal Fieldhouse, a 60+ and a 70+ team. Some players from our barn were scattered amongst other teams, notably JB and Bill on the Lansing 70 and Garrettson and Edwards on a 60 Elite.

60+ Team

Chris Burkland, Darren Long, Jerry Briand, Lenny Koskisan, Mike Howard, Mike DiCosola, Mike Gorney, Mike Petty, Scott Poliskey, Steve Seres, Mike Huey, John Fiacca, Mike Rutherford, Dave Crabill, Mike Petty and Mike Davis in net.

A loss and a tie each day wasn’t enough to make it to the final rounds. Big fun had by all.

70+ Team

Art Autio, John Lamson, Dan Jewel, Tom Odegard, Tim VanKurk, Tony Martin, Wil Strohschein, Jon Marengo, Wayne Facca, John Bishop, Tim Doucette, Rick Lee, Rick Szabo, Corey Brocklehurst
