Bantam "A", 2012-2013 (Owen Sound Girls Hockey)

    The players and families traveled down to Mount Forest on Sunday afternoon to have a re-match with the Mount Forest squad.  The Owen Sound squad brought along several a.p. players to fill some absenses due to March break.  While they had some power play chances and worked hard, the only goal came in the third period, for Mount Forest.  As the clock wound down, the Hawks found themselves with a close game, but a loss.  This was a good chance to meet up with this team again, and keep on the ice.  Regular scheduled practices for our girls end this week. 

    The Bantam A girls spent March 1 - 3 at the Nottawasaga Inn, taking part in the March Madness tournament, hosted by the Clearview Ice Cats.     They returned from their tournament as Champions!

    Another tie with Stratford on Sunday evening, was not enough to give our Bantam A Ice Hawks the opportunity to go to Ottawa and the provincial tournament.       This time, there was great chances, but no great play that set our team apart from the Aces.  With only one hard-earned goal by Kathryn Schreiber, the Hawks kept their scoring at one goal.       Now, the team turns their attention to one last tournament; "March Madness" at the Nottawasaga Inn, starting on Friday, March 1. 

    The Bantam A Hawks, sponsored by Mar Wind and Wiarton Golf, will need all of their players, and a commitment to rally back from a 2 game deficit, if they want to make a trip to Ottawa in April for provincials.

    The Bantam A Ice Hawks, sponsored by Wiarton Golf and Mar Wind showed up to play at this year's Silver Stick tournament hosted by the Aurora Panthers.  With two wins and one loss, the competition was so close among 16 teams, that they missed advancing to the quarter finals by one goal.
