16U Travel Win Another OT Thriller

After an incredible 9-1 record to finish as the 1 seed in the 16U division, the boys looked to finish the job. After getting a first-round bye, the boys got placed up against the Jr Grizz for an intense semifinal game. With a rivalry like this, everyone knew it would be a game full of passion and energy. But no one would have expected that it turn into a game of defense. With Damian Lowe, #92, netting the only goal late in the 1st, it was as tight as it could get. Both teams playing strong, and nearly perfect games. And that was the difference maker, a perfect game by none other than #31, Adam McCray. The Dawgs goalie pitched the shutout, and a trip to the championship!

With a big double overtime win over the Mustangs, the Logan Jr Aggies looked at a chance to have a cinderella story ending. The Aggies started off the game with a big 2-0 lead, and the Dawgs found themselves facing adversity. But a big 2nd period where 3 unanswered goals were scored, they took the 3-2 lead into the 3rd.  But nothing could silence this Aggies team as they popped in 2 goals to take the lead with 4 minutes left in the game. Now, looking defeat straight in the eyes, the boys knew what was at stake. They skated and grinded, fought hard, but with no luck could find the back of the net. Time now under a minute, Coach Anderson calls for the extra attacker, pulling Easton Sargent from the net. With a 6th skater, #77 Diesel Burt, flies into the zone to jump into the attack, one last hope. As seconds tick away, it felt as all hope was lost on an incredible season, but sure enough with a bouncing puck thrown on net but Diesel Burt, the extra attacker paid off as he netted the game tying goal with 37 seconds left on the clock. The team erupts on the bench! Boys are buzzin, and the season is saved for the time being. The buzzer sounded as regulation ended in a tie, leading both teams to a 3 on 3 overtime. And what a showcase it was, with both teams getting big opportunities, flying up and down the ice, in an epic thriller. But the Dawgs came out on top as #3 Xavier Howard slipped the puck 5-hole for the OT game winner!
