The
TNT minor Atom AE team travelled east over the Thanksgiving weekend to play in
this year’s Edge Again Cup.
The team started out slow against Markham, giving up 2 goals early in the game, but came back to win 4-2. After waking up, the team dominated Ajax, however their goalie played a fantastic game, keeping the score at a respectable 4-1.
The following day was an early start against the host team. Whitby is undefeated in their league, racking up scores of 10-0 and 9-1, as well as beating Markham 11-4 and Ajax 10-2 in the tournament. From the start, our team controlled the game, thumping Whitby 7-2. Later in the day, our team continued the pressure, taking down Ajax 12-1 in the semi-finals, despite their talented goalie.
We played Whitby again in the finals and played their huge hearts out. In the end, it was a game that could have gone either way. We lost as a team, 2-1.
Our coaching staff wants to congratulate our amazing players who have come a very long way since the start of the season. Also, a huge thank you to all the parents, friends and family who came out to support and make a ton of noise. This is only the beginning of the season. The best is yet to come!
Thanks again from the TNT Atom AE coaching staff
