Sailors Face Tough Competition in Playoffs
With a strong regular season record, the Sailors were grouped into the top half of the playoffs, matching them up against some of the toughest teams in their division.  The boys battled hard in the first two games against the Seaforth Stars, but even with a valiant effort were unable to secure wins.  The next tense battle with the Tiverton Thunder proved to be a battle of the goalies, with some outstanding goaltending by Tom.  Assisted by Ryan, Alex scored for the Sailors – however, as much as the guys played a great game and pounded away at Tiverton, the first game of this match-up ended in a tight 2-1 win for Tiverton.  

The boys played yet another tense and exciting playoff game against the Kincardine Kinucks #2 team.  Going into the third period with a 0-0 game, Justin made a strategic pass in front of the Kincardine net to Alex who landed the only goal of the game and secured the victory for the Sailors!  All the guys have been playing great hockey against some very formidable opponents – let’s keep it up Sailors!
