Blyth Atoms
lose tournament
semi-final
The Blyth Atoms started their
third round of group playoffs on the
right foot by upsetting the tough
Hensail team 3-2 in a nail-biter
from start to finish in Hensail.
This was a well-played hockey
game with no goals scored until
early in the third period when
Hensail took a 1-0 lead. This
however, was short-lived as Darryl
Bromley tied the game for Blyth,
assisted by Mark Wilson. At the
9:43 mark in the third period, Blyth
took the lead 2-1 with Mark Wilson
scoring, set up by Jeff Cowan and
Michael Courtney. But at the 6:06
mark, Hensall tied the score 2-2.
Blyth played super hockey the
remainder of the game killing off a
Hensall power-play late in the
game, controlling Hensall’s top
player Mark Bell. With 1:24 left in
the game Mark “Sparky” Wilson
lifted Blyth into the lead for the last
time set up by Darryl Bromley and
Michael Haggitt. Final score was
Blyth 3, Hensall 2. Next home
game this Sunday, March 17 in
Blyth is at 7 p.m.
BLYTH ATOMS IN BRUSSELS
TOURNAMENT
The Blyth Atoms opened the
Brussels tournament and lost a 3-0
game to Howick. Blyth came out
flat in this game and could not
generate any offence. This loss put
Blyth on the consolation side of the
16-team tournament. Saturday,
Blyth met the Wingham B team
and played a good third period to
win this game 6-4. Blyth found
themselves behind 2-1 going into
the third period. A stubborn
Wingham team went up 3-1 early in
the third. This seemed to wake up
the sleeping Blyth team. Blyth
scored five straight goals in a four
minute span to take a 6-3 lead.
Wingham added one goal late to
make the final 6-4 for Blyth. Mark
“Sparky” Wilson lead this rally
with three goals and two assists.
Jeff Cowan scored one and set up
two with linemate Michael Court
ney adding one goal and one assist.
Defenceman Greg Blok also scored
one and set up one.
This win put Blyth in semi-final
action on Sunday against a strong
team from Clifford. Blyth battled
hard in this game but could not
beat a hot Clifford goalie and could
not get any breaks, losing this
match 4-0. Despite the loss, Blyth
played well in this game.
