U18 Jr Titans bring home Silver from Silver Stick Tournament

The U18 Jr Titans faced some highly ranked teams in the Silver Stick Tournament in Collingwood last month. During game one, the Jr Titans squared up with the Collingwood Blues in an evenly matched game, where they edged out the competition in a 5-4 nailbiter. The next game against the Owen Sound Jr Attack was another win for the Titans, 6-4. In game three of round robin play, the Jr Titans easily beat the Erie North Shore Storm 4-0. The semi final game against the Riverside Rangers kept everyone on the edge of their seats. Tied after regulation, the game went into overtime and a shootout where Will Rowe provide some shootout heroics with a huge dangle, snipe and celly, to win the game. The team was off to the finals where they faced a tough regular season rival – the St. Marys Rock. It was a back-and-forth game until the end where St. Marys pulled out the 3-0 victory. Despite the deficit, it was a closer game than the score indicated. St. Marys picked up two power play goals, one in the first and one in the second and an empty netter at the end of the third to seal the deal Congratulations to the entire team for coming together and exhibiting excellent play and sportsmanship all weekend.
