As part of the Greater Rochester Area Honda Dealers Frozen Frontier hockey event, presented by Labatt, a variety of
NYSPHASAA and western New York teams played a series of outdoor games at the home of the Rochester Red Wings of the International League. The series also included an American Hockey League game between the Rochester Americans and the Lake Erie Monsters and an alumni game involving the Buffalo Sabres Old Timers.

Christopher Cecere was on hand for the high school portion of the Frozen Frontier and captured some amazing and unique hockey images. Outdoor Winter Classics aren't just for the NHL.
"The minute the Frozen Frontier was announced in Rochester, I knew I wanted to be there to cover as many games as possible," said Cecere, who has been a MaxPreps photographer since 2009.
"I was able to cover seven of the 10 games and
Mike Janes also covered a couple. The weather was rainy on Saturday and early Sunday, causing concern, but it never bothered the athletes or really anyone on the ice. After every game I walked on the ice for some team photos and every player, coach, referee, really anyone involved had a ear-to-ear smile."
