Bantam AE Toros Win Silver in Oshawa Cup
The Pharmasave Minor Bantam AE Team came to play in the Oshawa Cup tournament.  On Friday, October 13th the boys won two tight, hard fought games with a 3-2 win against the Northumberland Nighthawks and then another 3-2 win, this time against the Oshawa Generals. Early Saturday morning brought a tough physical game against the Ajax Knights resulting in a close 4-3 loss.  The boys bounced back Saturday evening with a convincing 4-1 win over the Peterborough Petes.    

The 3-1 record earned the team a birth in the semi-finals with a rematch against the Northumberland Nighthawks.  The boys came out flying, earning a 3-0 victory.  This set the stage for another rematch – this time against the Ajax Knights in the tournament final.  The boys gave everything they had but our shorthanded squad ended up losing 5-1 in the end. All in all the boys gave a tremendous effort, proudly earning the silver medal.
