Cents lose in game 7 WOAA Senior "A" championship Shaun, regory Huron expositor In a do-or-die game 7 clash, the Huron East Cen- tenaires faced Milverton Four wheel Drives with the winners being crowned as the WOAA Senior "A" champions. The Cents were wel- comed by their hometown crowd of Seaforth March 25, the largest attendance record in the team's history said Centenaires marketing & promotions director, Brett Lee. The 50/50 draw was at one of its highest pots as well, by the end of the night it reached close to a S1000. In the first period, the Centenaires dealt with sev- eral penalties and Milverton capitalized leading 4-2 with four minutes left in the first. As the game went on, the lead increased, both teams were checking with force and tempers were flaring. The captain of the Cente- naires, #7 Brendon Merritt screamed from the bench to Milverton's goaltender, "I'm coming for you tonight." The Cents were down 6-3 in the second period of action, starting goalie Jesse Raymond was pulled. Always vocal off the bench, backup netminder, Alex Hutcheson took his place. Though Milverton's aggressive puck control would prevail, they won 10-5. "Thank you everyone. Players, staff and Seaforth," stated from the Centenaires Twitter account. "This sea- son was everything hockey should be." «�. Did you know? 1[ 6/10 Canadians read print newspapers. POSTMEDIA Promote your business with print advertising.
