A GOLDEN start to a fantastic season of hockey for U15B!
It was a thrilling and successful tournament that showcased the passion, skill, and camaraderie of the team! Having played just a few exhibition games prior to this tournament, the players demonstrated great heart, hustle and sportsmanship this weekend; going undefeated in round robin play.
Facing a 2-0 deficit in the semifinal, the team showed incredible resilience, refusing to let their gold medal aspirations slip away. With relentless determination, they battled back to tie the game with just 17 seconds left in the 3rd period, forcing 3 on 3 overtime! In a dramatic finish, they sealed the comeback victory with a thrilling 3-2 win, securing their spot in the finals.
The final game was just as intense! Fast paced hockey action, featuring back and forth excitement in both ends. Even when Whitby was down on the scoreboard it did not stop them from giving it their all until the last buzzer! Their grit paid off with a 2-1 final win to secure gold!
The players especially loved having their fellow Wolves from varying age groups and divisions watching in the stands, encouraging their play! Everyone is looking forward to a great season of hockey ahead!
