Schedule & Results, Midget B, 2015-2016, REP (Georgina Girls Hockey Association)

Saturday night the ICECATS came to town and it was important for Georgina to come out strong and not relinquish the league lead in their final home game of the regular season.   

Entering into the match up the Georgina Midget B held the Divisional League lead by a mere point with only 4 games remaining.    They HAWKS are in the midst of a three-way race with a couple of CATS (Clearview Icecats and Toronto Leaside Wildcats)    

Just shy of 5 minutes into the game Georgina was exchanging chances when Natalie D cleared the Georgina Zone, Haley won the foot race along the boards and fed Emily going to the net.    Under pressure Emily fought off two defenders and knocked it home.    

In the second period Clearview appeared to control the play.   Georgina struggled with clearances, neutral zone turnovers and constant effort.   Clearview won their share of the battles and foot races.   It was Lauren who was perfect on Clearview’s 22 shots and 9 scoring chances to keep her team in the lead.         

Georgina did not play a prototypical HAWK game but managed to scramble their way to 29 shots, 15 of which were scoring chances.   In the third period Georgina picked up their game.   With only 5 minutes remaining Christine moved the puck up the right side, Brit beat the defender down the wing, cut hard to the slot and sniped one inside the far post.   Emily grabbed her second in the last two minutes of the game with an accurate shot into the open cage to from centre ice.  

Hawks won 3-0 and currently hold onto the Division title with only three games remaining.
