PEEWEE's CAPTURE LUCKNOW LEGION 'B' CHAMPIONSHIP
This past weekend the New Orleans Pizza Peewee’s traveled to Lucknow to compete in the Royal Canadian Legion Zone C1 Peewee Rep Tournament.






The Meteors opened the schedule Friday against league rival BCH whom they recently tied 1-1 only eleven days prior. Continuing on from last game both teams held each other in check thanks to stellar goaltending; Riley Deline putting up the wall between the pipes for Mitchell.

 

Midway through the second period Curtis Lockhart opened the scoring for Mitchell with help from Quaid Austin but BCH would reply less than a minute and a half later to even it up 1-1. The rest of regulation play and overtime solved nothing pitting both teams heads-up in a shootout. BCH came out ahead forcing the Meteors to the ‘B’ side of tournament competition.

 

In the ‘B’ semi-final match the Meteors came up against tourney host Lucknow. The opening frame would once again remain scoreless and Lockhart would once again open scoring in the second period being set up by Ryan Murray and Judd Walker. Mitchell’s Jake Preszcator made it 2-0 with help from Riley Sykes and Jacob Rauser. Lucknow cut that lead it half finally getting one by a solid Tanner Knechtel only to see Preszcator reply one shift later, compliments of Sykes and Jacob Deck. Nearing the end of the period Stephen Bird and Lockhart would get the puck through the neutral zone to a driving Austin who busted in on a breakaway making a fine deke to go up 4-1. Lucknow would get one late in the third to finish off the scoring for a 4-2 Mitchell victory.

 

That afternoon the Meteors would take on Teeswater for the ‘B’ Championship. This time Mitchell would take the first period lead with a goal by Preszcator. The second frame would see a flurry of goals by the Meteors which would send even the most seasoned Hockey Night in Canada colour commentator scurrying through the record books.  Mitchell’s Jacob McPhee started the second period scoring followed by one from Jarett Vogels. The Otters would get on the board at 5:23 to make it 3-1. At 4:59 McPhee would net his second only to be followed 26 seconds later by Lockhart, 11 seconds later by Austin and 11 seconds later again by Sykes capping off four Mitchell goals in a span of 48 seconds leaving the Otters gasping for air. Kaleb Baker would get another before the end of the period and Walker added further insurance early in the third to complete the 9-1 rout and give the Meteors the Royal Canadian Legion Zone C1 ‘B’ Championship. Assists went to Austin & Baker each with three, Lockhart with a pair and singles to McPhee, Murray, Rauser, Sykes and Walker. Solid defensive efforts were also provided by Ryan Harmer & Reid Ramseyer to complete a total team effort.

THANK YOU  to the Mitchell Legion for sponsoring the team for this tournament!!
