they participated in the final
playoff tournament on Saturday,
March 26 in Clinton.

the puck to Ryan McClinchey who
sent a long pass to Peters who laced
a beauty high into the far comer of
the net.
Stephen Twp. was shutout totally
by Blyth's goalie, Taylor
Hesselwood, so the score remained
3-0.
In game two, Blyth faced a keen,
quick Elma Logan team. Although
Blyth made some key defensive

and Tammy Root who kept the

In period two, Blyth persevered.

poking the puck under goalie
Steven Crawford.
After another Elma Logan goal,
Blyth had a spark when Peters

Brussels and Blyth Atom Houseleague teams met for the last time this year at a tournament
March 24 in Brussels, sponsored by the local Optimist Club. While the action this time was

up for the six-team tournament was Wingham.
