Ryan Eyre started the scoring for Sarnia. Collin Zimmer sent Ryan in on a break away and he beat the Stratford net minder low on the stick side. Collin Zimmer scored on a goal mouth scamble with only 21 seconds left in the first to put the Jr. Sting up 2-0. Ryan Eyre was awarded an assist on the play. After a scoreless 2nd period, Mat Waun redirected a point shot from Logan Johnston that found the back of the Stratford net.
The defense pairings of Logan Johnston/Beynon Jonas and Gavin Lauzon/Damon Skinn-Wai played a great game on the blue-line for the Jr. Sting. Stevie Schaefer and Cameron Stevens both played awesome in net for Sarnia to earn the shut-out. The Jr. Sting will travel to Stratford on Sunday March 20 for game 2 series.
