     The Atom LL Sailors played 2 games again this week-end.

     On Saturday March 7th, Brussels welcome the Atom LL Sailors onto their home turf.  It was a good game and with good goal tending both teams were able to keep the scores at 0-0 in he first period.  Into the second period Noah Smith scored the first goal of the game for our team with assistance from Owain Sykes.  Brussels was able to sneak ahead in the second period and scored 2 goals.  In the third period Cody Souch scored a goal with only 1:34 second left in the game with help from teammates Braeden Duncan and Liam Armstrong.  I wasn't quite enough to keep Brussels down.  After a game well played Brussels came ahead with a final score of 4-2.
     The Atom LL Sailors were not going to be down about their loss.  The very next day they welcomed the Minto boys into Goderich.  The boys played with determination and drive!  A fun game to watch both teams keep the goals at bay until the third period.  Liam Armstrong scored the first goal of the game not to long into the third period with help from Luc Arbour.  With only 2 minutes left in the game the Minto boys tied up the score.  Goderich really showed Minto that they wanted to win!!  With excellent goal tending by both Trenton Foster and Tanner Merkley the team went into overtime.  After a full 10 minutes of overtime neither team scored any goals and so the game ended in a tie 1-1.
     Tomorrow the boys will be traveling to play Minto again... and this time Minto's got it coming!!!
