Games #10 and #11
The final two games of the regular season were against Elma #1 and Elma #2.  The team worked really well together in both these games and came out on the short end with a pair of 2-1 losses.  Not bad for having lost 9-0 and 10-0 to these teams the first time we played them! The team hustled after the ball and did not give the opposition as much time as in our previous matches with these two teams.  A few miscues led to a couple of the goals by the Elma squads, but there were also many good scoring opportunities that were thwarted by some strong defense and goaltending in both these games.  The forwards managed to put away a couple of the scoring chances we had and we actually managed to stay in these games for the vast majority of them.

The coaching staff was extremely impressed with the teams ability to play with two of the top teams in the league.  It proved to us that they have the ability to play a strong game with any other team in this league and we are hoping that this strong play will carry over to the playoffs and the tournament.  We believe in the kids and think they can put together a couple of wins in the tounament and have a chance of winning the "B" Championship.

We are looking for a strong finish to the season which would make the season ending party that much more enjoyable.
