Buffalo Outdoor Classic Tournament Champions
The weekend of November 8th thru the 10th, the
LaSalle Sabres Atom AE team travelled to Buffalo, New York to participate in
the Buffalo Outdoor Classic Tournament.
On Friday, the team were up and ready early in order to play
against one of their own, Bluewater League opponents, the Kent Cobras. LaSalle took the win with a score of 9-2.
After a quick break between games, the Atom AE team took on
the North Pittsburgh Wildcats. They
players played well with great passes and teamwork but were defeated. North Pittsburgh Wildcats won the 3-2.
Following the game, the team went out for a Team Dinner at a local restaurant
and it was great to see the boys bond on and off the ice.
Saturday, November 9th, we played against the George Bell Titans. Despite playing in outdoor rinks, the players still faced some challenges playing against the elements. Atom AE team won the game with a score of 6-1.
With two wins and one loss, the Atom AE team made it to the final game which took place on Sunday, November 10th. Although we were short a player on the bench (due to an injury in Friday’s game), the team rallied together with determination and perseverance against the North Pittsburgh Wildcats. The LaSalle Sabres Atom AE team won the Championship with a final score of 2-0. The Atom AE team, are Tournament Champions once again!
Congratulations Atom AE, you deserve it and we are so proud of you!
