Pontiac Midget A Lions
The Midget A Lions had one game over the weekend.
On Saturday, the team faced off against the Aylmer Extremes at home. The Lions dominated from the start and kept the Aylmer net minder busy throughout the game.
First period goals went to Hunter Lukacs-Hitz and Thomas Beck. Their goals were assisted by Evan Atkinson, and Carson Rusenstrom (two).
The second period saw Atkinson net three for a hat trick. He had help from Thomas Beck and Connor Gilpin.
There was no scoring in the third period as penalties were called that delayed the game and time ran out. Final score was a 5-1 win for the Lions.
