Congratulations to the U9A London Devilettes on their victory this weekend in Aurora!
The girls fought hard all weekend, learning many lessons along the way and growing together as a team. After defeating a hard-working Napanee Crunch team in the semi-finals, the Devilettes faced their toughest challenge yet in a highly skilled Central York Panthers team. The Devilettes went down 1-0 on an early goal from Central York, but did not let down or give up. They battled hard pressing on the forecheck and playing exceptional team defense, featuring stellar goaltending from their tandem of keepers. The hard work and determination paid off eventually, with the Devilettes scoring two third period goals to go ahead 2-1. The final minutes were a flurry of activity, with the Devilettes shutting down last ditch efforts from the Panthers, and ultimately securing the win. Way to go girls!
