hash mark

So Aldridge took him to lunch and when they returned there was 160 perfect hash marks, each four inches wide, two feet long and 60 feet from the sidelines.

“We bundled up pretty good. None of my kids had played in the snow. We couldn’t see the numbers, couldn’t see the hash marks.”

Carroll’s abundance of energy can be translated to training camp where he’s attracted widespread media attention by sprinting along the hash marks, completing passing to receivers and running out to players after a successful drill.

Lind sent the puck to McCormick at the hash marks and the Firebirds captain flicked it in.

That’s why the referee or linesman dropping the puck ensures both players taking the draw have skates pointed straight ahead and planted near, but not over, hash marks within the circle.
