Coaches Comments:
As always it is very difficult to get up for games like these but the team played together, look for one another and came up with some beautiful goals. It is easy to get into bad habits in these games but all in all we were happy with the effort and will wait to see who the opponents will be in the next round. We will need to be ready for every game as all the teams are good and we can expect stiff competition along the way. We played hard to get into this top round, so we will take advantage of the level and try to improve all the way through to the playoffs when it realy counts. We wish all the boys and their families a Merry Christmas and look forward to see everyone for the next game where ever it may be!
17 - 1 (4 - 0, 6 - 0, 7 - 1)
