Midget A Team Wins Silver Stick Tournament
Congratulations to the Ajax Midget A for winning the Silver Stick in Midland.
The Midget A team earned their spot at the 2017 International Silver Stick tournament in January this past weekend with a hard fought championship win in Midland competing against 11 other Ontario teams. After a disappointing loss to Elmira in their first game, the Midget A team battled back in round robin play beating the home town Midland team and a team from Wawa with solid wins to finish first in their group.
An exciting semi-final game against the New Hamburg Firebirds was a real nail biter in the last three minutes of play but Ajax secured the victory 2-1. Ajax came out strong early in the championship game and racked up 4 outstanding goals in the first 2 periods. They maintained their domination against the Niagara on the Lake team right through to the final buzzer with a final 4-1 score. This is one time when earning silver means you are the champs! The team enjoyed their celebratory skate with the official Silver Stick and are looking forward to the finals in Sarnia.
Congratulations to the players and the awesome coaching staff!
Good Luck at the International Silver Stick in Sarnia in January, 2017.
GO KNIGHTS GO!!!!
