NotesPink the Rink
Over the weekend
the Taylor Fluid Systems Peewee C Stratford Aces participated in the annual
Pink the Rink tournament in Etobicoke, Ontario.
With a record of 2-1, the stage was set for the first elimination
game against the Kanata Rangers. The Aces came out hard and fast, but the
Rangers were prepared to match their intensity. Two goals in the first gave the
Rangers the early advantage but the Aces seemed unfazed by the deficit. The
Aces had multiple chances in the second and third periods as they swarmed the
net, bombarding the Rangers’ net-minder with shot after shot, but each time
they were turned away. Two more goals by the Rangers extended their lead and as
the final seconds of the game played out, Aces’ coaches and parents looked on
with pride. The Peewees had played a complete game, start to finish and no one
could question their work ethic, their unselfish play or their total team
effort.
Well done girls! You
represented your team, and the Aces organization with heart. And that’s a win
in my books every time.
