Midget A2, 2016-17, REP (Whitby Girls Hockey Association)

The Whitby Wolves Midget A2 travelled to Michigan for the American Thanksgiving Weekend and came home as champions. The Wolves were down 1-0 late in the final game but completed the comeback in regulation, beating the Kensington Valley Ravens by a score of 2-1. Final game MVP was Jenna L.

On November 19 Midget A2 invited Novice DS out for a fun practice, where each Novice player was paired up with a Midget player. The practice included an off ice warm up, and then there were some full ice skating, shooting and stickhandling drills, followed by some fun drills called baseball, buddy battle and Toys 'R' Us. The practice finished with a shared stick game and a 1000 pictures. On November 23 the Novice DS team came to cheer on the Midget A2 team to victory over the Clarington Flames.

After finishing the round robin tied for first in Pool B with a record of 2 wins and tie, Whitby knocked off North Durham in the quarterfinals and then Etobicoke in the semi finals to reach the gold medal game. In the semi finals Whitby was down down by 2 goals with only 4 minutes to play and scored twice to even it up before winning in dramatic fashion in 4 on 4 overtime. In the finals a very strong Ancaster team won gold with a 4-2 victory over Whitby. Congrats ladies!
