Vancea Financial Pee wee C claim WOGHL championship
The Vancea Financial Pee wee C team have won the WOGHL league title beating the Ilderton Jets in a three game series.




Game one was last Sunday (March 24) in Ilderton.
The opener had the Jets scoring first..however Jenna Akroyd-Snider from Jessica Blowes, scored early in the second period to tie the game. Blowes from Jillian Mair, would fire a great shot over the goalie's shoulder to nudge the Aces to victory. The entire team and goalie (Megan Arnold) worked hard to kill off three penalties in the third period...to the keep the win alive.
Game two was Tuesday evening at the RBC...the Jets would again score first, however, Kate Schneider from Rebekkah Phibbs and Joselyn Burdett would tie things up early in the second period. The Jets got another two goals by the third period to take a 3-1 lead. The Aces knew what they had to do and flew into action. Mair from Schneider would slip one in from the blue line to come within one point. With two minutes left, Tarha Keen from Akroyd-Snider and Blowes, would tie the game to give the Aces another point in the series.
Game three, back on the Jets home turf, would see another action packed game. Both teams worked hard for the final. The Jets scored late in the second period to lead the game 1-0..that was enough to force the Aces to kick it up a notch and Schneider fired one in the top corner of the net to tie the game. There were many opportunities for both teams late in the third. Again goalie Arnold fought off many shots on net.
The game would end in a tie....however the Aces reached their required four points in the series to clinch the title.
Great work team.
