Peewee Wallaceburg Girls Find Silver Lining

The Wallaceburg Lakers Peewee girls hockey team won silver medals, finishing their run at the Ontario Women’s Hockey Association ‘C’ provincials this past weekend in Toronto, Ontario.

Wallaceburg was a perfect 3-0 in pool play to open the weekend.

The Peewee girls defeated Nepean 3-0, Wilmot 7-0, and Walkerton 7-0 to advance to the OWHA quarterfinals.

In the quarterfinals, Wallaceburg again beat Nepean 3-1 advancing to face Timmins in the semifinals.

Against Timmins, the Lakers would need triple overtime to decide a 2-1 game, sending Wallaceburg to the OWHA finals.

In the championship game, Wallaceburg squared off against Chatsworth, but couldn’t pull out the win, falling 2-0 in the gold medal game.
