TNT 2 Midgets win Millbrook tournament
TNT 2, who play in the Simcoe Region Local League, travelled to Millbrook over the Feb 6th weekend, competing in an 11 team tournament.



The Tornados opened the tournament with a 3-3 tie against Plattsville, Friday night (game time 10 pm), which meant they needed to maximize all the remaining points available in their next two games for any chance to advance into the playoff rounds.
TNT defeated the Durham Crusaders 5-1 and the Beverly Bandits 5-3 on Saturday, finishing the preliminary round 2-0-1 but still wouldn't find out until Sunday morning if they would be heading home, or advancing to the playoff rounds. East Gwillimbury 1 only needed to win their final game to knock out the Tornados. Instead, East Gwillimbury tied Plattsville, and as a result ended with the same number of points as TNT in their pool. It set up the tie-breaker that TNT won by virtue of a lower Goals Against.
As a result, TNT moved on to the semi-finals Sunday afternoon against the tournament hosts, Millbrook Stars. But after three periods, the home town Stars would not be playing for their own trophy as TNT won 3-2, setting up the finals against EG 2, who play in the same Simcoe Region loop. TNT won 3-1 for the title.
