Hitting the Ice: Steel Head Coach Accepts ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

By JASON LOWENTHAL

Since the beginning of August, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has swept the nation, raising over $4 million for the ALS Association and its chapters. In the challenge, one has to have a bucket of ice water dumped over his or her head and then nominates other friends to do the same within a 24-hour period. Each time the ice bucket challenge is completed, a donation is made to help fight ALS, also commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Your Chicago Steel have gotten involved in the challenge as well!



Coach McConnell was nominated for the challenge and bravely accepted and completed it earlier today. McConnell decided to pass on the challenge to defenseman Jake Bunz, forward Robby Jackson, and former Steel coach Steve Poapst.

To get in on the action and help fight ALS with the Steel, use the hashtags #IceBucketChallenge and #ALS and help spread awareness across social media!
