Four games in six hours didn't slow this team down and to the delight of the crowd, the green machine fired up to bring home the championship. Game one was against the first of three New Hamburg Husky teams in the tourna- ment. The Stars knew they would be in tough after the Husky #1 team had just routed their first opponent 13-1. However, the Stars came out and forechecked with a purpose and a great opening game was played. The Stars opened up a 3-1 lead heading into the third, however, the Husky #1 team had zero quit and after tying the game late the Husky's snuck a goal in with 39 seconds left to win 4-3. The loss seemed to take a little wind out of the sails of the Stars. Game two started with a slow pace and the Stars seemed happy to let their opponents stay with them. Good goaltending by P. Hunter kept the team in the game until the Stars were able to pot a couple of goals to get the game to overtime. Playing short handed in the extra frame just opened up the ice for J.Dietz, the Stars were back out for their third contest. Whatever the Stars didn't have in game two, they found for game three. Playing against the Husky #2 team, the Stars gave them fits. It must have seemed like there were 10 green jerseys on the ice at all times. The Stars struck early and often. Led by J.Pelss' 5 -point effort, and strong play by Q.Wilson and brother C.Wilson, the Stars put nine goals on the board that could only be described as a total team effort.

B. O'Reilly has absolutely taken his game to a new level playing smart hockey and created chance after chance not only for himself but also his teammates who were the beneficiaries of hard work. And if the puck came close to the right point S.Tenhag dashed dreams by sending it back deep. The only question left at the end of game three was whether or not the Stars emptied the tank and would there be anything left for the gold medal match against the Husky #1 squad who had beat them in game one. The game didn't start out great. The Huskies were all over the Stars, pinning them in their end for long stretches.

The result a calming effect on his team that allowed the confidence to build. Near the end of the first, Pelss potted a beauty to put the Stars up. After the Husk- ies tied the score just before the bu77er the kids from C4th regrouped and played a great second period. Dietz scored to make it 2-1 his toumament leading snipe and N. Robinson who was all over the ice all tour- nament scored the eventual game winner to extend the lead to 3-1. The play of the game may have hap- pened in the second. After a tumover in the offensive zone the Huskies were break- ing down the ice seemingly uncontested when out of nowhere D.Moylan came fly- ing back to lift a stick and break up the chance.
