7) Girls Hockey – The girls hockey season got underway yesterday in Sarnia under the bright lights of Progressive Arena vs St. Pats. Your Lady Eagles battled hard and made things tough on the Irish but came out on the short side of a 4-1 score. Hailey Reid scored a power play goal and Sammie L had some dazzling moves with the puck. Emmalee G and Vanessa L were strong on defence, giving the Irish no room to operate. Ava S and Emma U both made some huge saves. This was a great first game ladies!
8) Last night our Junior Boys Basketball team headed to Petrolia for their season opener against the Lancers. Our boys looked a little shell shocked as the Lancers came at them and quickly went up 20-9 after the first quarter. The Lancers controlled the boards for the entire game which led to many second, third and fourth opportunities and scored pretty much every time up the floor. Leading performers for the Eagles were Arie R with 6 points, Nation S with 5 points and Ben W and Mason V with 4 points each. There is a very important practice tonight right after school. See you boys there.
