Owen Sound, On - The Sarnia Sting were in Owen Sound on Saturday night to take on the Attack in Ontario Hockey League and came up with their first win of the season with a final score of 2 - 1.

Sarnia found themselves down 1 - 0 after the first period when Keevin Cutting scored with a 1:09 left in the period.  In the second Charles Sarault tied things up on a shorthanded goal.  And later in the period on the power play Connor Murphy scored what turned out to be the winning goal assisted by Alex Galchenyuk and Craig Hottot who played in his first season game after sitting out a three game suspension.

J P Anderson went the distance in net turning away 28 shots and made several key saves to keep the Sting in the game.  Ex-Sting netminder Brandon Hope took the loss making a total of 40 saves.

Sarnia outshot Owen Sound 42 - 29.  Sarnia went one for four on the power play, Owen Sound went zero for four.

JP Anderson was selected the first star of the night, Hope earned second and Connor Murphy earned the third star.
