BANTAM BEARS CONTINUE TO CLEAN HOUSE
The Cavalcade Ford Bantam Bears continue their winning streak as they take the first 2 games in round 3 semi-final, All -Ontario playoffs. Game 1 had the Bears.....
trekking to Lindsay for an afternoon faceoff. By the end of the first frame South Muskoka had a 2-0 lead. Not the Bears strongest attempt, when it was all said and done they notched this win with a final score of 3-0.
Sunday Feb. 26th had
South Muskoka playing host to the Lindsay Muskies. With a solid hometown crowd present, the Bears surfaced the ice ready to get down to business. Hard - hitting right out of the gate, the Bears were quick to draw a penalty from the Muskies. The Lindsay player lost complete control, physically retaliated against the referee and was immediately suspended.
A bizarre start to game 2, the Bears kept their composure and sealed the first period with a 3-0 advantage. A strong physical presence gave South Muskoka a huge advantage. By the end of the 3rd this was 6-2 win.
Game 3 takes place Wednesday, March 1st back in Lindsay. With an anticipated sweep, the Bears could feasibly begin All - Ontario championship finals next weekend.
This road to OMHA finals has been one of hard work, commitment by the players and a sense of strong discipline. Representing their hometowns with pride, the Calvacade Ford Bantam Bears are a group of respectful young men displaying sportsmanship and fortitude at all angles. Already champions in every sense.
Please come out and support these players as they move forward on their quest for gold.
