Semi finals Game 3
Yesterday afternoon, the south Oxford 3E Power U18 Storm travelled to St. Thomas for game 3 of their semi final series.
The boys were trying to continue their momentum after the big win the night before. It was a tentative start for both teams as neither team wanted to make a mistake. Late in the period, the Stars had an odd man rush and made the boys pay scoring the only goal of the period.
In the second, the boys had a few chances, but no luck and St. Thomas added to their lead going into the final frame.
In the final frame, the boys did everything they could to try to get on the scoreboard but had no luck. The Stars were able to score one more making the final 3-0. With the loss, the boys successful season comes to an end. It was a great season with amazing kids that left it all on the ice every game.
Thank you to the coaching staff: Bill Huitema, Jon Nunn and Dan King for volunteering your time and the effort you put into leading our boys not just on the ice, but off the ice as well. You are appreciated by the parents and the players as well.
Thank you to Linda Stiles for being the team manager and making this team run smooth. She is the best in the business.
Thank you to Kendra and Ryan for the unbelievable social media content that you put together all season.
Thank you Karilyn and Rob for the looking after the team finances.
Thank you Jason, Bryan and Gail for keeping track of the shots on goal every game.
Thank you to our fundraising team, Meagan, Michelle and Karilyn as well as Charlie for the help with pumpkin pick up.
I apologize if I've missed anyone.
Thank you parents!!! Without the support you've shown the boys none of this would be possible.
Thank you to the players(our sons) for keeping us on the edges of our seats throughout the season. You have made us so very proud.
Last but not least: to the graduating players. Good luck on your future, whatever that may be. You were true leaders for the kids coming up and for the 08's from this season. Thank you for leading this team to a very successful season.
Good luck to all next season,
Roll Storm,
