U18B Stangs Start Season With Silver
The Grand River U18B Mustangs kicked off the 2022/23 season with their first tourney of the year in Niagara Falls this past weekend.

After finishing round robin play, the Stangs were matched up with the top seed Gloucester Stars in the semi finals. The Stars were undefeated heading into the playoffs and have not allowed a goal all weekend, both of those stats would change after Saturday night's game. The Mustangs heavy forecheck and puck possession game was too much for the top ranked Stars and Grand River pulled off a 2-0 win to punch their ticket to the championship game on Sunday where they would play the Nepean Wildcats.


This would be the second game against the Wildcats as both teams battled to a 1-1 tie in preliminary play. As expected, the championship game would prove to be an evenly matched affair as the score was deadlocked at 0-0 after regulation. Unfortunately the Wildcats buried the winner with 3 minutes left in OT to take the win and the gold.

Fantastic team effort all weekend as the girls battled some of the top teams in the province and showed they are right there in the discussion as they walked out with the silver and heads high.The U18B Mustangs are:
