I really liked what I saw from a few of the NHT Purple defenders; Hill was the encapsulation of all the best qualities. He’s patient; he stays even with his man, and he does not lunge for the stick – even when it’s being dangled out there like a hook in a murky pond. Hill is great at containing his man and supporting in settled situations. He’s got a sneaky good handle too and turned a few difficult-looking clears into easy cross-field hits to streaking middies. This season he’s swapping the Maroon and Black of Goffstown for the Maroon and…Silver of Derryfield. The two schools aren’t that far away from each other and are in the same division in the NHIAA, so that’s a game that is worth circling on your calendar if you reside in Southern New Hampshire this spring.
