Peewee C are finalist in Nepean tournament

After a great game to open the tournament on Friday night with a 4-0 win over the Nepean Stallions, the Peewee C were pumped to play their second game. However, after some nice come from behind goals to even the score up, the team was defeated in the last 40 seconds by the Stittsville Stingers. The Skills Competition was another opportunity for the Cougars to show off them skating skills. Many of our players ranked in the top 10 in the skating challenges and it was good to see that the Powerskating sessions were paying off.
The team regrouped and went for dinner and decided to get their game faces on for the next game at 7pm. It would only take one goal for us to move on to the semis and we got a couple to defeat the Nepean Hurricanes. The semis were held early on Sunday at 8:30 am and after the long day before, we hoped that the kids would be ready to play and they were. Another 1 goal game for us and we beat the Nepean Sharks and to move on to the finals. After racking up 3 shutouts and only allowing in 4 goals, the goaltending duo of Skylar and Dylan, our team was awarded the Best Save Percentage trophy. But we still had a game to play and it wasn't going to be easy since we had to play the Stittsville Stingers again. The game started out great with the Cougars scoring first, but the momentum was on the other team's side and they ended up winning 6-1. The Cougars played their hearts out and gave a great effort. Kudos to all your hard work!! We left the tournament a much better team than we arrived.
