Kitchener Lady Rangers Atom Red Brings Home Title
Kitchener Lady Rangers Atom Red Brings Home Barrie Sharkfest Title
The Lady Rangers Atom Red team went 6-0 and
captured the Barrie Sharkfest title on the weekend of November 17th. After a tough round robin schedule where they
played 3 Barrie Sharks teams and a team from Orillia, the LR Atom Red team took
top spot heading into the playoff rounds.
The semi-final game was against a strong team from Sudbury and after the first period the game was within a goal. LR Atom Red charged ahead in the second period and followed it up with a strong third and took the semi final game by a final score of 4-1.
Off to the finals where they faced a tough team from Wilmot who they had not beaten over the past couple years. With some stellar goaltending and defensive play LR Atom Red stifled the Wilmot offence which led to some timely goals from the speedy group of LR Atom Red forwards who dominated the rest of the game.
This was the first time this group of players and coaches had attended this tournament and the result was a championship to bring back home to Kitchener! The coaching staff could not be happier with how the girls came together as a team, played hard, and had lots of fun. A weekend to remember! The coaches were super proud to say that every single player on the roster contributed with points and were very solid defensively as they led the tournament in Goals For and Goals Against!
Thanks to Lady Rangers Red Nation for your awesome support over the weekend.
