Minor Peewees Still Rolling With a 14 Game Winning Streak!
This past weekend the Lakers played host to the Kitchener Jr. Rangers on Saturday, October 17th. It was their first meeting since the Rangers beat out the Lakers in game 5 of last year’s first playoff round. The Lakers definitely wanted to avenge last year’s loss and that they did. The Lakers always had the lead and outhustled, outworked, outhit and just plain dominated the Rangers from start to finish. Final score, 6-2 Lakers.
On Sunday the Hamilton Reps felt the momentum of the Lakers squad as they too, were dominated in almost every aspect of the game. Surprisingly, the Reps managed to score first but after some constructive criticism on the bench the Lakers bounced back with a very motivated effort for the rest of the game winning easily by a score of 10-2.
The most prominent aspect of the Lakers' play of late has been their commitment to team play, moving the puck between themselves unselfishly. The Lakers now host London Green on Saturday, October 24th in Wingham and then travel to Sarnia to play Lambton on Sunday. The coaches are proud of the players’ dedication and success thus far this season….. ”Who do you play for???”
