Tri-City teams dominate Trevor Wingrove tourney
Kilpatrick back in Coq. continued from page 38
“I think we have been playing better offensively of late,” Rose said. “I think we’re just snake-bitten right now. We’re throwing a lot of shots at the net, they just aren’t dropping right now. Even though we only got five goals [Saturday], they were timely ones.” Dane Dobbie and Daryl Veltman bagged a goal and one assist apiece for Coquitlam, who bolted to a 3-0 first-period lead and went ahead 4-0 on Ryan
Johnson’s l o n e secondperiod m a r k e r. J a s o n Jones and c a p t a i n ROSE B r u c e Murray also tallied for the A’s. Next, the A’s travel to Langley on Wednesday to play the defending playoff-champion Thunder, who currently sit 5-2 behind 5-0 Victoria. They then tangle with the winless Maple Ridge Burrards on Saturday at Poirier, 7 p.m.
RAG LINE: Delmonico added some offensive punch to his line-up when he inked ex-Jr. Adanacs’ standout Kelly Kilpatrick, who was a free agent after being released by the Thunder. Kilpatrick was chosen by Langley in the second round (13th overall) of the 2009 WLA draft but injuries since hampered his status with the Thunder. “He’s a great athlete and has a cannon for a shot when he’s on,” Delmonico said of Kilpatrick, who was held pointless in his A’s debut Saturday.

Items from the National Lacrosse League’s Washington Stealth and the Colorado Mammoth were raffled off, with proceeds going to a scholarship fund to aid male or female lacrosse players in their pursuit of post-secondary education in memory of Trevor Wingrove, who played all his minor lacrosse in Coquitlam and went on to star with the Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs and, later, the Coquitlam Adanacs of the Western Lacrosse Association. Also a high-ranking city manager with the city of Coquitlam, Wingrove passed away after a courageous battle with cancer almost two years ago.
