Jack Tolhurst Memorial 2016 Rep Tournament CHAMPS!!!
What a great weekend for the boys from Collingwood Blackhawks PeeWee AE that went to the St.George Tournament!





After a tie, a loss and a win in the round robin, we were off to the semi final game vs Thamesford Attack. We gave it our all.  With a 2-2 tie at the end of regulation, we began a series of 1 minute overtimes starting with 3 on 3 then 2 on 2 and finally 1 on 1. After battling down to the 1-1 we took a penalty giving them the extra man advantage. With a 2 on 1 we thought we were done. But, much to our dismay our only player over took the other two opponents and raced to the opposite net to defeat the goalie, sending us to the finals. 

Facing the team we lost to in the round robin, we had hoped that the boys would come out flying and they did by scoring two goals in the first period.  Nearing the end of the second and Delhi scoring their first goal we knew we had to hold them for one more period. With 2:00 minutes to go, they pulled their goalie giving them a 6 on 5 advantage. In the end our players pulled through holding them to a score of 2 - 1 and becoming the tournament champs for the peewee division. Great job boys !! 

And a huge thank you to the parents, grandparents and friends for coming to watch and cheer us on.
