In game two, the Lady Rangers took on a strong Stoney Creek squad. It was a back and forth affair for two periods. The Lady Rangers entered the third period tied 0 to 0. Stoney Creek got a quick goal in the third period and despite a strong effort the Lady Rangers could not tie it up. The Lady Rangers lost the game 2 to 0. Macy played very well in net.
In game three, the Lady Rangers took on their strong league rivals from Twin Centre. Twin Centre scored a goal very late in the first period. The score was 1 to 0 going into the third period when Megan tied it up early (assists Marley and Jenna). The Lady Rangers were pressing when Twin Centre went up 2 to 1 with only a few minutes left. Twin Centre scored an empty net goal to secure a 3 to 1 win. Skyla was very solid in the net. Strong effort was put in by the defense corps of Jaime, Marley, Jesse, Jordan and Abby.

The Lady Rangers played very well over the 4 games in the tournament against some very strong competition.
Great work Lady Rangers. Keep it up as we head down the home stretch of league play.
