Busy Stretch for Atom Hyundai AE
The Atom AE team is currently in a busy stretch with five games in nine day. Following Saturday's win, the team played the home half of the back-to-back with Walkerton on Sunday.
Walkerton opened the scoring in the first period at the Memorial Arena. The Sailor's tied the game 1-1 in the second period shortly after killing a penalty.
Spencer scored, assisted by Jordan and Justin what would be the Sailor's only goal.
The Capitals scored early in the third period to take a 2-1 lead. The Sailors pressed hard late in the period, but could not get the tying goal despite a powerplay with 21 second left in the game.
On Remembrance Day the team played in Listowel against the Cyclones. The Sailors's came out flat allowing Listowel to build a 2-0 lead at the end of the first period.
Listowel would add another in the second and third periods for a 4-0 final.
Tuesday's game marked the midpoint of the season. The Atom AE Sailors are currently 1-7, but have played better than their record shows. The team is continuing to improve and is looking forward to the second half of the season.
Up next for the Atom AE Sailors are two games this weekend with a pair of away games in Wingham and Kincardine.
