Storm holds best record in Midget B Tier


If you check the standings this monring, you will find that not only is the North York Storm tied with Mississauga for first place in Central Division but the two teams share the best record in the Tier with Georgina. So just imagine if this team continues to get better.

Yesterday a weary Storm team pulled into Georgetown for its 9th game in 10 days against a young and disciplined North Halton team. Although the Storm dominated in parts of the game, they were unable to finish off some excellent scoring chances. The shots on net were an incredible 40-8 in favour of the Storm. The first goal was scored by Amanda in the 4th shift of the game after some sustained pressure in the North Halton end. The Storm scored again in the second period on a high wrist shot from the point by Lauren N to take a 2-0 lead. But the persistent Twisters continued to battle back as the Storm fatigued and made some errors in their own end. The score was 2-1 at the end of the second period and midway through the third period the score was tied up. The Storm continued to have some good scoring chances but could not regain the lead.

The Storm can now enjoy a well deserved break in the schedule. The next game will not be until December 11th against Etobicoke.
