Sarnia Legionnaires vs St.Thomas Stars
September 2, 2010

Sarnia is now 1 - 2 in exhibition play after taking their first win before a packed house at the Clearwater Arena against the St. Thomas Stars.

After the first period Sarnia led 2 - 0 with goals by Marcus Gverzdys and Tyler Chichini.  In the second period St. Thomas scored the lone goal on a powerplay by Joel Martinelli.  Third period action saw Sarnia take a 2 point lead after Tanner Tomlinson scored at 7:48.  St. Thomas narrowed that gap less than a minute later with Martinelli scoring his second of the night.  Sarnia held on to take the 3 - 2 win.

Sarnia's Goaltending was shared by Mike Reed and veteran Kyle Washer each allowing a single goal.  Reed make some spectacular saves in the first half of the game.

In previous exhibition action Sarnia took two losses against the Strathroy rockets both games ended with 6 - 5 scores.

Coach Jeff Perry was not in attendance at this game as he was scouting at the Sarnia Sting annual Black and White game.

Sarnia season begins on September 9 in Leamington, then on the 14th against Lambton Shores.  Their home opener is on Thursday September 16 against Strathroy.  Home games will begin at an earlier time at 7:10 pm.
