What to Know for Sunday's Championship Game

Editor's Note: This article was changed to indicate the information about the student section's choice of color.

As you probably know by now, the Wilmington High School boys hockey team is headed to TD Garden in Boston for the Division 2 state championship game.

But there's plenty more you need to know before Sunday's game. So as you get ready to support the Wildcats, here are six pieces of useful information to get you ready for the contest.

Game Time in Boston: Puck drops on the championship game at 1:30 p.m. inside TD Garden. The Wildcats will take on Franklin, a team that has lost the last two state championship tilts in a row. Two years ago the Panthers fell to Tewksbury in overtime while last year they fell to the Wildcats by a 3-2 score.

What to Wear to the Game: The official word on wardrobe is in fron the members of the student section. Similarly to Monday night, a wardrobe change will happen during the game. Fans are asked to wear a blue shurt with a green shirt on top of it. On Monday, fans wore a white shirt with a blue shirt on top of it, and made the switch early in the first period.

Tickets to TD Garden: If you are making the trip to see the game in person, purchasing seats in advance can save you a few dollars. Buying tickets online and printing them at home in advance of the game will cost fans $10.95, while spectators who purchase their tickets at the door will pay $15.

Leave Extra Travel Time: Wilmington hopes to find the luck of the Irish on Sunday. But if you are travelling into Boston on St. Patrick's Day, you won't want to push your luck. The South Boston St. Patrick's Day Parade is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. on Sunday. The parade itself won't cause traffic around TD Garden, but you are going to want to leave extra travel time as an increased number of people are expected in the city on the holiday. In addition, if you plan on taking public transportation, you may also want to leave early because of the increased volume of travelers.

Who to Watch For: Not as familiar with the Wildcats? The team has a long list of talented players, but there are some names you can expect to see big performances from. Junior goalie Drew Foley is a rock between the pipes, and has allowed only five goals in four postseason games. Senior captain Cam Owens is a talented goal scorer, but he has also turned into an assist man this year as opposing defenses key in on him. Brendan McDonough, meanwhile, has a goal total on the rise. He's scored six times in the playoffs to lead the way for Wilmington.

How to Follow if You Can't Make the Game: Stuck at home and can't make the game? No need to fret. Just like we did during the North Division 2 final, Wilmington Patch will be live chatting from the game. From the comfort of your own home, you'll be able to receive up to the second updates as if you are at the game. Check back for more details on where to go for the chat.
