34 years ago while playing high school hockey for Comstock against the Sampson brothers including the head coach for Hackett Hockey,Mr. Sampson took me aside and told me that I was on the right track and to not let anyone tell me different.It was a wonderful proud moment that I never forgot.He then told me however that his boys were going to take it to me. Thinking of you all during this tough time! Jimmy McBarnes 1980 Comstock Grad.
