Mooretown
travelled to Cleveland to take part in
the Warrior Tournament and came away
with a 2-2 record.
On Friday
the Storm were up against the Elyria
Panthers and skated to a hard fought 5-3
victory. Emma McCormick was outstanding
in net keeping the score close. Jared
Pageau scored 4 goals with Aaron Dobson
adding a single, which was the eventual
game winner. Drawing assists were Drew
Pepper and Bailey Smalls.
Saturday
afternoon the Storm took the ice against
hometown Cleveland Warriors and were
defeated by a score of 5-3. It was a
pretty even game but Mooretown could
never get sustained pressure until they
pulled the goalie with 2 mins left. Emma
McCormick was once again sharp in net.
Jared Pageau scored the 3 Mooretown
goals with Bailey Smalls drawing an
assist.
The Storm
were supposed to play their game against
Rocky River Saturday evening but they
decided since they were 0-3 and this
game meant nothing to them they decided
to forefit so their little darlings
could go trick or treating. The
Mooretown staff were pretty upset about
this decsion even though they were
awarded a 6-0 victory, they came to play
hockey not get forefits. Mooretown now
had to win their 4th game Sunday morning
to move onto the Championship game.
Sunday
morning saw Mooretown up against the
Cleveland Barons and right from the
opening face off it was apparent
Mooretown had too much candy the night
before as the Barons skated them into
the ground and controlled the play
skating to a 5-0 shutout of the Storm.
It was a very good team but Mooretown
played a very lack lustre game. Emma
McCormick was the lone bright spot for
Mooretown as she kept the score to 5 but
could have been much worse.
It was a
very fun opening tournament for the team
as the kids enjoyed themselves and so
did the parents.
