The Saugeen Maitland A
Lightning Midgets brought home
silver medals from the Whitby
Tournament of Heroes on the
weekend, falling to the Sarnia Sting
with a 2-1 loss in the final contest.
The Sting scored first, with the
Lightning answering on the power-
play goal late in the second period.
After a scoreless third period, the
match was settled shortly before the
end of the four-on-four overtime,
when a Sarnia player knocked in the
deciding goal.
In round-robin play, the
Lightning downed the Nepean
Wildcats 4-2 and the Burlington
Barracudas 4-3, before falling short
to Sarnia 6-1. In the quarter-finals,
Saugeen met a tough Hamilton
team, turning them away 1-0. In the
semi-finals against a strong North
Halton squad, a 2-2 tie at the end of
regular play sent the game into
overtime. With 14 seconds left to
play, the Lightning struck to hurl
the Twisters spinning back to North
Halton.
