vs Wheatley
Flyers lose 4 – 3 in overtime
The Alvinston Flyers of the Great Lakes Jr. C league hosted SouthPoint from Wheatley at Watford Arena on Friday, Sept. 24th.  Southpoint opened up the scoring late in the first, but the Flyers used a 2 man advantage to even the scoring.  Dan Warner scored with assists going to Chad Rainsberry and Brock Pinnell.  A deflection put Southpoint ahead again, but Chris Edwards came from behind the net and scored an unassisted powerplay goal to bring the score to 2-2.  Special teams played a big role in the game, with Southpoint scoring their third on the powerplay.  Edwards intercepted a pass and scored on a breakaway shorthanded goal to tie the game.  Four on four overtime saw both teams controlling the play, until the 1:12 minute mark, when Southpoint stole the puck at their blue line and stole in to score.  Matt Ferguson stopped 49 of 53 shots in his Jr. C debut.
