    What’s a Donnie Ice????

  3. Husker21 says:

    The question shouldn’t be what is Donnie Ice. You should be asking, who is Donnie Ice?

  4. Ol # 7 says:

    Ridgefield- 15
    Somers- 7

    Donnie Ice is the Nickname of Ridgefield Off coordinator Don Connelly.

    You can get Lemon-Cherry or Rainbow.

  5. Sweet Lou Janavey says:

    Ridgefield 13
    Somers- 12 3OT

    Does this mean they will be serving Ices at Somers? It is supposed to be in the 80’s. Put me down for Lemon.

  6. gee wiz says:

    I guess put me down for cherry. That’s some nickname! Could it be the same “D-Ice” that closed his eyes and hit the luckiest shot of his life to beat Garden City in 87? Ridge 12 somers 7

    I’m curious to see how Prep fares after a rough start. They’re a good team but have to show what they’re made of right now. They had a front loaded schedule.
