Schedule & Results, Taylor Fluid Systems Peewee C, U13, 2018-2019 (Stratford Aces Girls Hockey)

In the semi-finals, the Aces squared off with the St. Mary’s Rock.  Both teams played solid defense, limiting the scoring chances to a few.  Ava Neumeister made some spectacular saves to keep the Rock off the board.  The Aces managed to pin the Rock deep in their own zone and began cycling the puck.  Aces gunner Alanah McIlroy made no mistake with a feed from Ally Wheal as she beat the Rock net-minder five-hole to give the Aces the lead late in the second period.  With time winding down in the third, the Rock pulled their goalie and sent another skater to the attack.  The Aces’ defense, lead by Kylie Fifield and Rowan Aikten bent but refused to break, fighting for control of the puck until finally, an empty-netter sealed the 2-0 victory for the Aces and punched their ticket to the finals.
