McGee Motors Novice Reps Fall in Game 5 Against Stars
What a series!!! After being down two games to none, the McGee Motors Novice Reps battled back winning Games 3 and 4, forcing a deciding Game 5.
However it was not meant to be at the Sailors fell to the Stars 6-2. The first two periods were like the entire series, as both teams battled back and forth, with both Stars goalie and Keon making great save after great save.
The Stars opened the scoring early in the first period but the Sailors evened the score late in the opening period when Sawyer found Mason open, who went in all alone scoring a beauty.
The second period was end to end action as the parents and fans on both sides held their breath time the puck came close to their own goal.
The game remained 1-1 headed to the third and final period of a very entertaining series. The Sailors continued to push towards the Stars goalie, but were turned away time and time again. In the middle of the period the Stars were the beneficiary of a couple of lucky bounces as the puck made its way into the back of the Sailors net for a 3-1 Stars lead. The Sailors were not able to stop the Stars as they kept coming and went up 5-1, before Caleb made an incredible end to end rush, firing a beauty shot past the Stars goalie closing the Stars lead to 5-2.
However that is close as the McGee Motors Novice Reps were able to get as the Stars scored a late one to win the game and the series 6-2.
This team has nothing to hang their heads about, as they showed great teamwork and determination to come back in the series and show the entire league how far they have come from the start of the season. Great work Keon, AJ, Caleb, Ella, Jared, Iain, Aiden, Logan, Sawyer, Devlin, Mason, Ryan, Kael and Graham!!!
