No. R-315. House concurrent resolution congratulating the 2026 Hartford High
School Hurricanes girls’ ice hockey team on winning a third consecutive Division II
championship.
                                        (H.C.R.257)

   Whereas, at the championship game, the defending two-time Division II champions and
second-seeded Hartford Hurricanes skated confidently onto the ice at the University of
Vermont’s Gutterson Fieldhouse against the top-seeded U-32 Raiders, with a bonus
contingent in the Hurricanes’ arsenal of several hockey-proficient and talented eighth
graders, including an impressive goalie who tallied 29 saves, and
   Whereas, Hartford, which always commanded the lead, opened the scoring with slightly
over two minutes remaining in the first period; an offensive-savvy eighth grader
contributed a second point in the second period plus two in the third; and with a late-game
score from a Hurricanes teammate, the sole Raider third-period goal proved
inconsequential to the Hurricanes’ 5–1 victory, and
   Whereas, the triumphant Hurricanes, who joyously skated off the ice at the game’s
conclusion, were Paisley Danaher, Jaylin Haley, Aubree Vail, Johanna Kissell, Chase
Stockwell, Vivian Tsouknakis, Sophie Daniels, Alex Perkins, Maria Chaput, Zoe Zanleoni,
Gracie Roberts, Ali Morlock, Grace Hayes, and Flynn Moreno, and
   Whereas, Head Coach Jason Gramling; Assistant Coach Jay Zanleoni; Goalie Coach
Erin Stevens; and student managers Lily Puls, Sophia Timoshenko, and Madison Gramling
were delighted, now therefore be it
   Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
   That the General Assembly congratulates the 2026 Hartford High School Hurricanes
girls’ ice hockey team on winning a third consecutive Division II championship, and be it
further
  Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to
Hartford High School.
