2019 Provincial Silver Medallist
Our PeeWee B girls travelled to Toronto this past weekend to compete in the OWHA Provincial Championship.

Game 1 started early Friday morning at 8:00 am vs The Lambeth Lancers the reigning Lower Lakes champion. The girls played well all game and unfortunately with 10 seconds left in the 3rd Lambeth was able to score and take a 1-0 win. This was a tough one for the girls to swallow since they controlled the game, now we had to run the table to keep our season alive.
Game 2 Friday afternoon was against Toronto Leaside Wildcats and our entire team came out with a purpose and walked away with a 3-0 victory.
Game 3 Saturday morning was another early start at 8:00am vs the Oakville Hornets. Once again the team was ready to get it on and dominated from puck drop to take a decisive 5-0 win.
Game 4 Saturday afternoon found us battling in a tie-breaker vs Georgina Golden Hawks for a spot in the quarters. In a must win all players remained focused for the game and battled hard to take a 2-0 win.
Game 5 Saturday night was a quarter final match up vs the Kemptville Storm. This was a back and forth contest between both teams that provided an edge of your seat thriller. Early in the 3rd period we managed to find the back of the net that would secure a 1-0 win. Now after 3 games in one day it was time to get some much needed sleep!
Game 6 Sunday morning at 8:15 am was the semi-final vs the Lakeshore Lightning. Mt. Forest took the lead in the first period and carried that lead until 1:40 in the 3rd when Lakeshore squared things 1-1 to force overtime. After a scoreless 1st overtime we know entered double OT to determine the winner. The girls aggressive play and constant pressure finally paid off and YES we buried one in the net to take a thrilling 2-1 win in Double OT.
Game 7 Sunday afternoon was the gold medal final vs the Ottawa Ice. The 1st period remained scoreless, our girls held their own against a strong Ottawa squad. Ottawa took a 1-0 lead early in the second period and it remained that way till 2:43 of the 3rd when Ottawa capitalized once again for a 2-0 lead. In the dying 2 minutes with 6 attackers we were able to create some chances in their end but just came up a little short to fall 2-0 to a well deserving Ottawa team.
Our girls left it all out on the ice in this final and gave the fans in attendance all weekend great hockey to watch. The 14 players that made up this year's PeeWee B squad played as a team all year and it was definitely on display this weekend. Hold your heads high girls, you are a well deserving 2019 Provincial Silver Medallist. Number 2 in all of Ontario is an incredible accomplishment and the icing on the cake after a great season.
Thank you to all the players and parents for an outstanding season, it was one heck of ride!!!!
Well Done Girls!!!!!!
