We Want the Cup!
After a successful Cripps tournament, the Atom girls returned to Kitchener to open up the playoffs against the Lions.

This was the third meeting against the Lions and the Mustangs were ready to play. Continuing the strong defensive play they have maintained as of late, the girls were hungry to get the offense going and get on the board.

It was a back and forth game with the shots just about dead even. The best scoring chance the Mustangs had was a one timer Naomi had from a sweet pass from Dozer behind the Lions goal. Unfortunately the Kitchener goalie got a leg on it and turned it aside.

The Lions had their best chance with 20 seconds to go in the game on a breakaway. After a brief conditioning stint with the Hartford Whalers, Halen was back between the pipes and shut the door to maintain the shutout and a 0-0 tie.  

Although scoring has been hard to find lately, defensively we have been lights out. Surrendering only 3 goals in the last 5 games with two consecutive shutouts. The scoring will come and when it does we will be a hard team to play against in the playoff round.

Great way to start things off and remember girls, no shaving as it's beard season.
