After an incredible start to the 2014 OFSAA ‘AAA-AAAA’ girls hockey championships in Sudbury, Ontario, the UCC Lancers girls hockey team was ousted from the quarter-finals of the tournament.

UCC entered the tournament ranked 10th before shocking their pool with a 2-0-1 record to finish first.

UCC beat Bill Crothers 3-0 to cap off their pool play, but their round robin performance was highlighted by an 8-2 route of Lawrence Park that saw Maddy Lalonde and Lauren Nicholson, who led their team throughout the tournament, each score hat tricks.

Playing Holy Cross out of Kingston in the quarter-final, the Lancers suffered their first loss of the season, falling 3-2, ending their OFSAA run, and their season overall, with a 19-1-1 record.

Lauren Nicholson scored both goals for the Lancers in the loss.

The UCC Lancers are considered a top contender for an OFSAA medal next season as they return their entire roster, as they had no grade 12’s in their lineup.
