The girls won their first game against Bluewater by a score of 2 - 0. Cassy Stafford earned the shutout, while Jenny Bults scored a powerplay goal and Kendall Whitfield scored shorthanded. Later in the day, they played Stoney Creek and came up with another win Syd Brown had a shutout in net, while Laurie Sinclair scored the lore goal of the 1 - 0 game Wednesday was a busy day as the Lighting faced some of the top ranked teams in Ontario.

Janette Hammell scored the first goal of the game, but the Markham team tied it up at the end of the second period. In the evening game, the Lightning played against a highly skilled Sudbury team.
