Alliance Playoffs
Lambton vs Sun County

The Jr Sting Minor Atom AAA squad opened the second round of the playoffs with a road victory in Windsor over the weekend defeating the Sun County Panthers by a score of 5-3.

The first period saw the Lambton boys come out of the gate in slow motion, but 'Chuck', fresh off his pre-game parking lot trauma, stood tall and kept things scoreless heading into the second frame. The Panthers hit the score sheet first midway through the period, but the Jr Sting replied with three of their own in the final six minutes to take a 3-1 lead into the final fifteen minutes of play.  In an evenly matched period of hockey both teams added two goals and Jr Sting cruised to a good road victory.

Putting on an offensive performance was Alec Dekoning who tallied 4 goals ( 2 on the powerplay ) , with the fifth marker going to Brock Perry on a nice wrap-around. Picking up assists in the win were Isaac McLean with two and singles to Colin Leyton, Vaughan DeGurse, Franco Sproveiro, Jack Dunn and Jake Burnard.

Sting Hardhat was awarded to Alec Dekoning, not only for his scoring prowess, but for his three full periods of drive and effort.

The Jr Sting travel to Hensall on Friday to battle the Huron Perth Lakers in their second round-robin matchup.
