Congratulations to all those who participated in the Hockey for Hospice tournament. All four of our Novice teams were in the tournament and all qualified for the semi-finals on Sunday. As an organization we went 8-4 in the round robin games, and raised $8413 for the Hospice of Windsor and Essex County which is a great showing for Amherstburg both on and off the ice. Six individual players achieved the over $300 pledge level.
Both Montessori and Paquette Performance qualified for the A pool and setup a potential all-Amherstburg final, but Paquette lost 3-1 while Montessori was able to win and move on. In the finals they faced a tough Harrow team that scored on the opening faceoff, but they battled back to win the A pool. Great job by the Montessori team!
In the B pool Midway Appliance won an overtime thriller in the semi-finals. That wasn't exciting enough for them though, because they won the B championship in 2 on 2 overtime! Way to go!!!
In the C pool Superior Engineered Wood Products lost a tight 2-1 semi-final game to a Riverside team.
