The Buffalo Stars Peewee MOHL team skated to a second place finish December 6-8 at the Rock n Roll Cup tournament in Cleveland.
Facing strong competition, the team played 3 close games and found themselves in a three way tie. Stellar goaltending and hard work gave them the point differential needed to advance to the championship.
Facing Canadian Select League Team Waterloo, the Stars stood tall and went toe to toe for three periods but came up short in the end.
“I am so proud of how our players conducted themselves both on and off the ice” said Stars Head Coach Dave Lynch. “They battled and stood up for each other all weekend and were excellent ambassadors for the Stars organization. We were the only team our division to even score goals on the eventual winner, and at the same time, our team held them to half their usual tally. I can’t wait to begin preparing for Pittsburgh in January where hopefully we’ll put it over the top”.
The Peewee MOHL team resumed their schedule at Cheektowaga on December 11 preparing for their January trip to Pittsburgh.
