Port Elgin Plex hosts Mitchell Meteors U13 rep B
A back and forth match between the Hoegy's U13 Rep B Meteors and Saugeen Shores Storm has Saugeen inching out the Meteors.
A tough loss of 4 to 3 as Mitchell conceded their first match up against the Storm at home. Weesjes opened the scoring with a point shot between the wickets at 4:07 of the first. Storm came back to tie the match 30 seconds later. Mitchell hit the score board first in the second at 3:39 with a team effort from a scoring Schoonderwoerd accepting a pass from Diehl. Meteors then fell to the wrath of the home field advantage stripes jailing Meteors players for a combined total of 12 minutes. Playing short handed for most of the game opened the back door for the Storm where they scored 3 unanswered goals. A late scoring Broughton on a lead pass from Weesjes brought the score within 1 for a 4 to 3 loss. Special mention to the Coaching squad; Haef, Pony, and Steiny for propping the boys up throughout the game.
